Tube vs solid state (with all apologies)


So… I’ve been building guitar amps for a few years… and very familiar with tubes and circuitry…  and just entering the audiophile world. 
Is there a definitive opinion or discussion somewhere for help in determining where and or when to apply either?

In guitars vacuum tube amp,in Audio personally 
Solid state has much similarities , Mosfets , Jfets, bipolar transistors come pretty close in sonics in a good quality solid state amps ,and more current ,control for drivers 
and sounds very good , if you want a bit of bloom or perhaps a bit bigger soundstage a vacuum tube preamp. To add to it. 
I have owned many tube amps ,and just tired of tubes to replace ,or blowout unexpected and taking out a channel ,
if you don’t mind then enjoy ,myself as I get older over 60
i want things a bit easier .
