Distortion in amps;most/least annoying?


As nothing is perfect,which forms of distortion in amps,or
which anomalies can you live with? And what sorts do you find annoying, to the extent of taking away the pleasure, from listening to the music.

To broaden the response a bit, I find the distortions in electronics much more irritating than the distortions in transducers, i.e. speakers and phono cartridges. It seems that the distortions in electronics are less consonant with the struture of the music. That said, solid state type distortions that start to pile up in the upper midrange/lower treble drive me nuts. As hunter/gatherers this may be the range that we are most sensitive to.
