Does hybrid amp really has the best of both world?

So true, Czarivey

Schubert,

SS or tube or hybrid continue to progress. I don't think any of their engineers stop making improvements.

Yes, also we really need to support Putin's efforts by buying
Russian tubes.

Tubes aren't going anywhere IMO. As long as there are talented tube
amplifier builders, people like me will prefer what we hear to be superior
and more realistic sound they provide(certainly some feel that way about
solid state). There's room for all manner of amplifiers when you consider
the vast range of personal taste that exists. Tubes and transistors are both
safe and need not fear extinction.
Charles,

It depends on how the design its executed .
