Does hybrid amp really has the best of both world?


I have solid state, tube and hybrid. I still prefer the tube sound.

Hybrid amps always uses the phrase "best of both world" in their advertisement. Seems like they are missing the worse of both world in it too. Otherwise, hybrid will sound superior. Right?

Sometimes. I have a pair of Platinum Plus Counterpoint NP-220s driving Magnepan 3.6s. You only hear the sound of the voltage gain front end tube section, in this case the beautiful sounding Mullard ECC35 CV569s with all their virtues. You get about 400 watts/ch driving 4 ohms, plenty of current drive and bass that's just not possible with any tube amp
