now find me a totally linear valve or SS amp ;-)

If there is no such thing in either category, then, are there differences in
their non-lienarity that might make the types distibuishable?

quite possibly, but thats not the issue here.

You can't beat the valve sound. I wonder what my 4-20 would sound
like if I put a guitar at one end, a couple of Celestions at the
other, and cranked it up... :-)

Ouch! transients!

A cranked amp flattens transients and turns them into tone.

If by cranked you mean overdriven ;-)

Loudspeakers

Nah, my Celestions have had far worse kickings than a 20W amp can ever hope
to dish out.

I fear for your tweeters... maybe thats why you like vinyl so?
