I know that that's not much to go by, which is why you'd do yourself a favour by actually listening to a well-setup valve-based system
I agree totally with that...even poor valve amplifiers manage to do this. However get a good one and one suitable for your speakers and you get the rest as well. I have yet(note I say yet. It may happen someday, just for me not yet) to hear a solid state design that manages to reproduce music in such away as to sound natural and real.
