Nothing in your statement intimates anythong about building
tube amps. Nothing. That thesis, as you stated it above, has
been shown to be incorrect. And if you did read the original
Hamm article, clearly the major point he made failed to stick,
because it was all about the performance of the amplifier
under conditions of severe clipping.
You have made your own self contradictions quite clear. Thedpierce@cartchunk.org wrote:

Mr. Ludwig, it is clear that you're not in the least bit interested in
dealing with the content of the article. You never read the article,
that's apparent, and you're making a load of baseless assumptions
completely irrelevant rantings.
We obviously are not communicating too well.

No, you stated the following, quite clearly and unambiguously:Frankly my entire thesis is simpler than all this: some people like to
build tube amps!
