Transistors, because they tend to produce a higher proportion of odd order harmonics, give music an unnatural glassy two dimensional quality. Tubes, because they preserve the Natural Harmonics of real music, create music with the most vivid live quality. Nothing you can do to a transistor will give it the natural harmonic quality of tubes.
