For the Record a great solid state amp with a tube preamp is what the majority to for you get the speed dynamic slam and better leading edge image focus
The tubes gives you that 3 dimensional depth and soundstaging that solid state can't quite match . That being said I have just rebuilt a Canary push pull 24wpc quad 300b tube amplifier that does music in a more live 3D presentation. Then ha solid state amp.
300b tubes one of the most Linear ever made and only draw back is need a speaker in the 93db + range or better to excel.
