    I did a search , perhaps has been asked a different way, but I just wondered what bands / genres you tube enthusiasts listen to / appreciate on tube gear?

    Acoustic music; Jazz, Folk, Soft Rock, etc.. Classical, solo to Symphony Orchestra. For Rock, Electric Jazz and such I prefer solid state.

    Does anyone not listen to Bill Evans? I love the way the piano sounds with my VTA ST-120. James Taylor's New Moon Shine, David Crosby's IICORMN are a couple of favorites as well.

    Jazz. Spotify premium from a Mac mini optically connected to an Altis Audio Reference DAC and then to the PAS (FWIW)

    I'll listen to almost anything that's well recorded from rock to classical, with an emphasis on acoustic instruments and vocals.

    However lately I've been listening a lot of vocals and guitar music - both acoustic and electric...especially Mark Knofler - Dire Straits, Knofler with Chet Atkins, Notting Hillbillies, Willie Nelson, John Fogerty, Roy Orbison, Simply Red, Suzanne Vega, Bobby McFerrin, Jennifer Warnes, Linda Ronstadt w/Nelson Riddle, along with Bill Evans and some Blue Note jazz artists.
