Further, NO one here ever made such a claim, save you. The
statement was VERY simpe: ANY solid state amplifier with
substantially more power than 20 watts is going to sound MUCH
better than ANY 20 watt tube amplifier when both are being asked
to deliver more than 20 watts.

That means a 50 watt SS amplifier will do better at 35 watts than
a 20 watt tube amplifier trying to do 35 watts,.


I wholly agree. However what happens when both are asked to deliver
2000 watts? But only for a very miniscule time, and average putting
out, say, 500 mW?


A 36dB transient ? You are joking yes ?


No, he's simply thrashing about in defence of a lost argument - as
usual.
