be carefull with electrical facts, or else one will be using only Sovtek tubes, since it is an electrical fact that they are superior.

Understood.
For the record,IMO a *good* tubed rectifier sounds as good or usually better than most ss rectifiers. FWIW, theres nothing more depressing than having a nice $7K amp go belly up because it blew a 50¢ diode in its rectifier. It happens more often than most people will admit. At least, if a tube blows, it can be replaced in a few seconds.
