| | Re: adding tube amp applicable for me? Although tube amps "can" make the sound warmer and are generally cleaner than solid state amps the cost per watt is more than dubble what solid state amps cost.
The "coolness factor" of Tube amps is high but Tube amps draw a fair bit of power even when not in use. Warm up time is also a consideration plus they run much hotter and require some sort of cooling of the room.
