You may want to have an option like:

"i use a tube amp now after having used a solid state amp" [and vice versa].

I know many people here on the boards have used both tubes and solid state, and have gone one way or the other... But I voted "i use a tube amp now"...

I use both a Tube and a Solid State amp

I use both a tube and a solid-state amp.

...so I'm just excluded from the vote...

I also use both a tube amp and a solid state amp.

I think the question should be phrased "the amp of mine that gets the most use (or favorite) is: tube, ss"

The answer to which amp I listen to most is S.S. on pretty much everything but female vocals.

Tubes for now, but this may change. I like to keep an open mind.

Tube amp (MG Head OTL) right now, who knows what the future holds. As for tubes vs. solid state, hey whatever amp sounds best with my cans, that's the amp I will stick with.

I have both toobs and SS.
Toobs at home. SS at work.

I have gone round trip, started with SS only, went to tubes, and now am back with SS only. I guess for me I like a more accurate sound with more details than warmth, so SS is the logical choice. I am a detail freak at heart, and the RKV lost a lot of the music's details and the high end info. I will look at tube amps again in the future when details are up closer to SS designs.

I like the combo if a tubed preamp matched with a good SS amp- gives me dynamics along with warmth.

 

[Gallaine]

I started out using all ss in my speaker-based system. After trying a tube preamp I doubt I'll ever go back (famous last words

). That system has been sold but my headphone amp is definitely of the tube variety.

I use tubes in the winter, semiconductors in the summer.
