Are tubes psychological?


This just occurred to me this morning as I listened in my rather dark listening room with the soft glow of tubed amps on the floor in front of me between the speakers: How much of my enjoyment of tubes gear is due to the relaxed state the glow puts my mind in?

Thoughts?

Give a wealty client who knows nothing advice, this is nice, but this is better. Client buys the other, far more expensive probably..

Why, it appeals to him in ways it does not to you.

I realized, auto, camera, audio, lawn mower ... I want stuff that I like each and every time I see it, remember the quest, the find, ....before I turn it on.

Seeing my tubes, yeah! Seeing the 'great' choices I made when I walk up to turn any part of the system on, OH Yeah!
