Into 2009; What rules?? Tubes or Solid State


I know that this question has had endless debate over the years and that there is also alot of 'Hybrid Equipment' which makes it hard to neatly categorize. Also, at what price points are we talking about?

But those things aside, if you had to make the choice starting from scratch in 2009, which way would you go?? Tubes or Solid State??

If speakers rule and amps serve, then tube amps just serve better.

Many different systems in different rooms at different price points all make me want to listen to more music. They all have tube amps in them.

Some ss amp systems let me hear lots of detail, but it's the rare system w/ ss amp that makes me want to stay and listen to more music. Cheers,
