Me too, I was afraid to say it for fear of getting jumped by techy bullys.
Some tubes have a rich film like quality.
I also have an old Zenith Space Command that has beautiful rich saturated colors I don’t see on the new screens.
But it’s old and you have to give it a real Fonzi punch up to get it to turn on.

I like how vacuum tubes sound, also.
I love to let the little kiddies show me a riff on their solid state "tube modeling" amps.
Then I warm up my old tube amp and show the what "actual" harmonic distortion sounds like.
