Mosfet mist?

Greetings,

I have read several articles on the sonics of mosfet amps to include Adcom,B&K,Counterpoint,Perreaux,etc. What exactly is mosfet mist and how would one know what to listen for. Are some amps more prone to this mist than others? I have a Perreaux 1150B doing woofer duty on a pair of Focal 706s spkrs(A modified Parasound 1000A on top)How would say the 1150B compare with a B&K in relation. Thanks.

Atmasphere if you were to make a tube hybrid amp would you pick Mosfets or Bipolars for the output stage.

By the way Adcom especially the older ones, like the 555 used Bipolar transistors and they sucked. They were suppose to be the poor mans Krell, no way.

I think you are right and a hybrid tube amp would be a good idea for home theater. It would have no output transformers which you like. So lets get cracking.
