Hmmm...I notice above that we again have the idea floated here that tube amps need 15 minutes to warm up, as if that were a relative disadvantage. Solid-state amps, in my - and many others' - experience, commonly need in the area of up to 8X that warm-up period or more in order to give of their best. Of course, since transistors for practical purposes don't wear out as opposed to tubes, many SS owners leave their amps always-on, but that option can be less attractive if the amp is biased heavily into class-A, or lacks a standby switch.
Anyway, I suspect the honest answer is "no", but there are probably some that offer transistor bliss...The real question may be: Is that bliss just as blissful? :-)
