Cat or Dog, Tubes or Sand?

[Geek]

I have this theory.....

Most tubeheads I have met online and IRL seem to be cat people (or more cats than dogs).

Yet most SS enthusiasts I met, have been definately dog people.


Let's begin the definative poll on this!



Cheers!

Solid state and turtles.

I do both ss and hs. Don't like any animal in the house in fact, unless it's served nice and cooked or roasted. But then again that's how I treat most of my parts as well. Where does that leave me?

Ps I do like children btw, just afraid to let the magic smoke outa them.

2 dogs
1 cat (it moved in last year and didn’t care about the dogs)
2 horses
And a few hundred goldfish and Koi carps in the garden pond.
No birds at the moment, but I like to keep birds in an aviary.

And it’s only SS at the moment.

Cheers

Dogs, cats, ss, tubes...

Well We have a pit bull, a squirell and three tanks of fish, everything at the moment is SS, but we can't afford tubes at the moment.

Cats are ungrateful, moody, fuzz balls barfing beasts. Dogs have their own flaws too, but at least they are loyal...
Hey cat lovers, stop waving with that sausage! Hector down! Down Hector! Down!!! Mutt...

I have a cat and a dog. All my stereo equipment thus far is solid state but all of my guitar amps (I have built three) are tube.

Yes, dogs think that they are human. But cats know that they are God.

I like dogs, too. I had a German Shepard once. It was East German; very disciplined. And frugal.

Big time cat fan. Not a SS hater, but partial to tubes in DIY equipment and vintage radios. I've heard that the presence of a cat atop a 1938 Philco console can help reception- cat capacitance.

 

[Fuling]

Four cats, several tube amps and one SS amp (F3 clone, close enough to a tube amp)

 

[Spooky Electric]

Yes, dogs think that they are human.

In a way they are. I once had a dog named Senta (R.I.P. my dear!). She always joined my listening room when I was playing calmer classical music. I swear she loved Mozart!
But when I changed to dancefloor music, e.g. "Smack my bitch up" from The Prodigy she scooted out of the room as if I had scolded her!

 

[Ed LaFontaine]

3 cats, 3 (was 4, headed to 0) kittens,
they tell their friends "hey, hang around this place, they'll adopt you just like us"

Solid state with tubes lurking in the wings

Too many speakers, more in the offing...oh, that wasn't part of the question...

 

[Steerpike]

Cats are like tube amps: delicate, refined, discerning, soft and warm.

Ed LaF.: I have a white cat called Mungo, named after the same.

Dogs listen to gramophones. So they have more class.

Class-D and no small animals. They'd be killed by the airborne EMI. Getting brain cancer here.
