I think this used to be true, but these days tube amps can be very faithfully modeled. E.g., the fender tone master amps sound great.

- tshaddox 5y agoEven when it used to be true, I feel like what was true was that tube amps sound more like tube amps than solid state amps.
- charrondev 5y agoYou’ve also got stuff like the keeper modelling amp and newer axe FX models that can sound indistinguishable when coming through good full range speakers. One thing that can make even modern solid state amps sound bad is crappy speakers. The bulk of solid state guitar amplifiers are combo amps with a single crappy 10” or 12” inch speaker in a cheap cabinet.
