  • So to recap: tube amps use tubes, solid state amps use solid state devices.

  • I can clearly see the sarcasm behind their channel name

  • People that say diodes suck obviously don't know anything, yes tubes sound better but diode rectification has it's advantages too, it's best to have both in one amp.

  • 205 people can suck my.........actually no, they're right this time

  • Solid state amplifier runs transistors..

    Tube amplifier runs tubes.

    THEREFORE TUBE AMPLIFIER

  • 138 thousand videos of nonsensical ramblings that anyone could tell you. bet your parent's are PROUD.

  • difference is:

    tube = awesome

    solid state = sucks

  • ready heres the difference

    tube amps have tubes, solid amps dont

    yayyyyyyyyyy! i did it

  • what a ridiculously stupid video...... if i knew nothing of amps, i'd think solid state amps would be vastly superior to tube amps based on his explanation.

  • from 3 to 5........ or less or more.....
