The best valve amps with point to point wiring are more reliable and long-lived than anything solid state. Except every once in a while over time one of the valves can spring a leak.
amplifier longevity
Is there any difference in longevity and or reliability between valve amps and solid state amps?
I thought that perhaps design differences between ss and tube amps might be a factor here.
Specifically I am considering the valve amps by Rogue Audio vs. the solid state amps by Luxman, both great brands in my opinion.
Thanks!
