Anecdotally, I agree with your consideration of AV electronics. One of
the key characteristics of valve amps I've used (mainly class A PP) is
the sense of 3D soundstage. I've never been able to recreate that with
SS - the closest (but nowhere near) is through electronic 'concert
hall'/spatialiser settings on SS amps.


Sounds like your valve amps have frequency dependant phase errors between
channels. Have you actually measured this? It's quite common...
