Do You Ever Find Yourself Unable to Listen To Your System?
I feel sincere gratitude to all responding to OP and to OP for his post. Many of us had/have some similar experiences,. Responding to such kind of question could be more valuable than a technical advise regarding a particular gear. Compassion that... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
@mahgister i do not normally go to live performances as at home i have better  SQ, in average. But if you are at q live unplugged performance, where you expect the sound will come from other than from the scene?

Thanks @lowrider.. for letting me know the credits of @atmasphere . I had a quick look at the site, it made a solid and convincing impression on me. I wish him all the best in his art of design perfect tube amplification. 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
Thanks @ghasley  for letting me know about the business of @atmasphere - sincerely i didn't have that info and don't see from where i could have it. Hence, the question  required an answer (for me i mean). And thanks @atmasphere  for your kind res... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
Hey @ghasley.. I would not ask such a question to Dalai Lama - i know there exists no verbal answer on it (i do hatha yoga can reach physically all asanas  -  this not necessarily " enlightens" you; in general,  the meaning of "enlightened" is qu... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
@atmasphere I trust your perception - are you a musician or a sound engineer? These things are subjective. There is more air with tube reproductionthat makes it very pleasing but not necessarily plausible. I mean, thereal sound is a bit different.... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
@hilde..I didn't mean a real echoes of course but something similar compared to the SS reproduction that i have in my another system with Cherry Megaschino Class d amp and Wired4Sound STP 2 pre. STP does make the already good sound stage of the Me... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
@hilde...I would say that tube amps give an "echo-like" sound stage (perhaps because of harmonics of different levels), and good SS amps give more realistic sound stage. I use both, tube and SS class D gear, and I cannot assure which I like more. ... 
Solid state amplifiers and sound stage, especially front to back "depth"
I think that here are two different issues.  First is the body and the depth of each instrument,  how individual instruments sound. Here I think besides the recording quality, amplifying equipment is definitive. On the other hand, whenever positio... 
Class D for a Tube Lover
Essentially, give you best of both worlds... This sounds perfect. Thanks @ml... for letting us know your thoughts and impressions. I understand your preamp is LA300me, should be very good. Looks like that you have spent about 8 times more in your ... 
An amazing sound engineer
Yes, in a small red wagon. This CD issue has bonus tracks. Try to get it and compare the recording with your LP version, you should not be disappointed.   
An amazing sound engineer
You may have a look at http://www.joetarantinomastering.com/for a  list. 1957 Thelonious Monk Septet Monk's Music (Riverside reissue 2011) is a good example of his mastercraft.    
Class D for a Tube Lover
Hm. You need to hear better preamps! The way to limit distortion (and colorations) with tubes is not unlike how you would do it with transistors- go fully differential. This keeps the even ordered harmonics down (part of the 'tube' sound) allowing...
