Yes. That's an interesting one. I don't know but suspect weight for weight (not necessarily of similar materials), but with similar external dimensions it could be true. Due to things like compression and tension and lateral effects? Within limits, obviously a fag paper thick tube ain't gonna be too strong. Unless made of Graphene maybe?
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
