A famous hi-fi audio designer invited some "golden ears" to do some blind A/B testing with a solid state amp he had designed and some famous "musical" tube amplifiers;
with a screwdriver he altered his amp to mimic the famous and costly amps, the "golden ears" were unable to identify when the solid state amp was engaged.
Nevertheless,
Tube amplification for hi-fi and guitar amplification has many supporters and there is a difference. There are reproducible variances in the auditory chain that some listeners find more pleasing and some characteristics of tube guitar amplification that some players prefer.
Let your budget be your guide, a well designed ss amp will sound good, as will a (presently) more expensive tube amplifier.
There is an argument about sound being a never ending wave that pleases; while digitizing creates stairstep auditory spikes that our ears respond to with fatigue. The evidence may be anecdotal, but we are more sensitive than most instruments.
Its not needed for it to sound good but a lot of people like the sound with the tubes. I play a small solid state combo at home which has a beautiful amp overdrive and when jamming with band mates i play a larger solid state combo, and use my Sovtek Big Muff Pi and still sound brilliant on solid or tube personally, some pedals and some amps sound better together but its all of ur own choice
Not if they are solid state, just a few seconds. There are however a few Tube amps out there and they can take a minute or so too warm up. What model do you have?
Around $300 to $400 if the reverb and compressor are working and the amp is in fair condition. In terms of musical value to a guitarist looking for a tube-like sound in a solid state amp: priceless. Lab Series amps (which differ from one to another due to some inconsistencies in quality on the manufacturing end) are believed by many to be the best solid state amp ever made.
amps like.. amplifiers? it depends on how many speakers you have. or amps like.. current draw? again. depends on your power needs, your power amps... ect
every guitar has a tone range. every effect pedal has a tone range. and thus, every amp has a tone range. amps can make a world of a difference in the overall tone of the guitar or bass. in the battle between solid state and tube amps, no solid state that I've heard, even comes close to the beauty of hot tubes.

Behringer amps are electric guitar amplifiers. They are used to amplify the sound of the guitar. There are different models for bass guitar and lead guitar.

it may not sound great but why the heck not
Typically 30 amps.
A small light bulb is often used to test a solid state relay (SSR). That is because a SSR needs a minimum load of at least 0.1 amps in order to operate. Using a meter does not provide a sufficient load.
Wattage is the total output of sound volume. Amps refer to the amount of current needed to provide proper power (electricity) to the amplifiers that reproduce the sound.
Amplifiers. Tube amps are the best and can easily out do a solid state, however they are often times more expensive for a good one.

Depends on the amp. There are two different types. Theres one for your in car speakers and theres one for your sub. The small amps are to increase sound for the small speakers and the big amps are so you can have subwoofers and you can have lots of bass.
