That is the first rational explaination I've ever heard of why tubes sound better.

Thank You.
By the way, below is a photo of the distortion spectra I recently took of my turntable / moving coil cartridge while reproducing a 1kHz sine wave from a test LP.
Look familiar? It is almost identical to the ideal distortion spectra of a tube amplifier! I think this goes a long way toward explaining why vinyl generally sounds more musical / natural than purely digital recordings and media.
