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?

Interesting question.  For me, they simply make Maggies live up to their potential even though I do use a SS on the bottom end right now.  I would prefer a tube amp there as well, but will have to save a bit of $ to get that D-76A on ebay right now.

No fair anyone buying it until I can!  I call dibs on it!

Oh, if you want to buy it and send it to me as a gift, I promise to give you all the credit here on the Forum.

Cheers!
