According to everything that I've read over the years, it is because of the particular distortion characteristics of tubes. The experts know far more than me, but to me it also seems that when using a tube pre as I do, that I get more focus and fine detail as well as more of the sensation of depth. 

Maybe I should have tried the F3.The F7 was a miserable disappointment with my high efficiency speakers.
