This a true statement. I've been building tube amps for a long time. Everything from 1/4W micro amps to a monster, completely impractical 400W beast that will render you sterile if you hit a G chord just right. As he said, it's a trait of all pure tube circuits.
Sag and compression are the reasons most tube amp snobs (or aficionados, if you prefer
), like myself, love tube amps.
