Most musicians choose an amplifier not for it's accurate sound reproduction,
but for it's flawed design characteristics (harmonic distortion, uneven
frequency response.)  Same goes with vintage speakers. The only time a
guitarist wants a clean amp and good speakers is when they produce their sound
before the amp via effects boards or pedals,and want only amplification.  How
it was explained to me was vacuum tubes produce warm even harmonics, while
transistors produce harsher odd harmonics.  Some of this is aged information
or heresay, due to the changes over the years from germanium to silicon
transistors, and CMOS JFETS have been observed behaving harmonically similar
to vacumm tubes.  Even among basic bulk components such as op amps there are
folks who swear one vendor's version of the same chip sounds way better even
though their specs are slightly different.
