I agree with this as far as amplification is concerned SS and tube are both great, although tubes are considered the best voltage gain.
However I would never run a low voltage tube output stage from a DAC, it’s just not what tubes are cut out for.
Its more about circuit design and topography, not the generalized tubes vs. ss. I've heard ss amps that are warm and "tubey" and tube amps that are tight, very clean and ss-ish. So it kinda depends....
