"It is these 'second order' distortion mechanisms that appear to make bipolar transistors more problematic than they first appear to be, and vacuum tubes to be more 'ideal, because even if they are limited in their implementation, they are more 'ideal' devices than solid state devices. "
Are you the guy who said a while back that tubes were great until you put them in a circuit? Is that why all of your designs use solid state?ROTFLMAO!
