You can't even read my post correctly, Dan. What I MEANT with my post is that Lynn Olsen has voted with his wallet and his wallet says tubes. If your amp was as good as you think or as he says in his review then don't you think he would have purchased it? I mean your amps were not really that expensive. So how does that make me an audio bigot?? Just because you say its so doesn't make it so. I fact I challenge you to prove that I am a bigot. I am sure that you cannot because I am not.I am reporting what sounds best to me and then searching for understanding as to why it sounds so good. That is all. You can look for your hidden agendas all you like but there are none.
The amps I have are not pure tube or SS. So much for I am a pure tube lover and hate everything SS. What they don't have is negative feedback.
While I haven't heard EVERY high feedback, transistor amp in the world I can say that I have heard plenty and that none of them sound right. So my opinion from experience is that it is not the way to build an amp. After reading on the matter looking how the devices behave, looking at what people like Crowhurst say about feedback and when Otala shows what happens with back EMF into high feedback amps it seems like an obviously bad idea with a real speaker (ie. not a pure resistor) when you see what it really does to the signal.
However; you keep the faith DAN, I guess some never learn from listening but blind faith in standard engineering practice will protect you.
