Evidence suggests that followers of the audio 'muses' are forsaking solid-state preamps and power amplifiers for the older, modified, or the newer recently designed tube components. We are told ad nauseam by engineers of the companies building solid-state high-fidelity equipment that transistors are in every way better than tubes. It is claimed that solid-state devices attain a superior transient response, are more linear, and produce greater clarity and inner detail, due to a faster rise-time and infinitesimal measured distortions of many kinds.
