Maybe for legato speakers, which is nice, but my comment is an overall comment for most speakers.

We live in a solid state amp world and most speakers are not well designed for tube amps. So keep this in mind when you're buying a tube amp.

I have heard that most speaker designs are built to deal with solid-state amplifiers. Add that buying a tube amp does not flourish with modern day speakers.  Wish I could recall specifics as to why this is.  Maybe someone else does.
