For many, I think this analogy works: A solid state amplifier is more accurate and reproduces more precisely what is on the recording. The tube amp on the other hand, may not be quite as accurate, but gives that wonderful warm sound and is more musical. I am not saying that I agree with this, but some do.
There is a thread going on regarding the Quad ESL57, and I believe there are statements such as "it may not be the most accurate speaker, but it sure makes the music sound good".
