Tube Amplifiers History
Vacuum tube amplifiers are an old technology, invented more than 100 years ago. The silicon transistors used in most amplifiers today were invented in the 1960's and very rapidly replaced vacuum tubes in almost all audio products.
The solid-state amplifiers have a few notable advantages over vacuum tube amplifiers:- much smaller and lighter;
- usable in low power situations, such as battery-powered radios;
- much improved energy efficiency;
- no warm-up time (tube amplifiers need to be warmed up before use).
So on the face of it, solid-state amplifiers would seem like a much better choice, but that's not the whole story...
Tube amplifiers have a more refined sound, very different from a transistor amplifier. The tone of a vacuum tube amplifier is softer, warmer and more natural. Vocals are more articulate, the separation of the instruments is much more defined and the entire listening experience is greatly enhanced.
