Ahem, the clipping is there, you are in denial.Originally Posted by Marco
I don't hear any "clipping", and so don't need to "pay attention", JC. The bottom line is my valve amps sound simply wonderful - better to my ears than any solid-state designs at any price I've owned or heard, and this is all that matters to me. I really couldn’t give a monkey’s about anything else!

You have become accustomed to that particular distortion and to you, it sounds "right" and "musical".
Another listener would be able to identify that phenomenon and in my opinion if the ss amp were sufficiently powerful would correctly identify it as "superior".
This situation is usually glibly resolved by saying, everyones opinion is valid and it simply boils down to personal preference.
Please allow me that preference without telling me only your ears are a criterium.
