Hybrid - Tube / SS amp capable of sub 1 Ohm loads?

Spectron Audio claims that Musician III SE is stable up to 0.1 Ohm Load - with headroom of 3500 watts over 500 msec.
This amp is neighter solid state nor its tube - its class D and for its sound description look at their web site/review page and search Internet, including Audiogon discussion forum.

Don Shaulis, reviewer from Stereo Times (who bought his sample amplifier) and has difficult to drive Apogee Diva wrote:

" I have never heard Moussorgsky: Night on Bald Mountain/Pictures at an Exhibition [Telarc B000003CSH] before. Oh, I have owned the CD for years but I never really “heard it” before. The Spectron presented the softer passages with such inner detail they became seductive but the real surprise came in the crescendos. The peaks reached were a revelation. It wasn’t that the Spectron could play loud, it was that I wanted the music louder. For the first time the crescendos were reproduced with full fury but no smearing or harsh edge that demanded the volume be reduced. Now, after many years, I finally “get” this fine recording..."

Good Luck with your search.

Don't flame me here. But you might consider a pro audio amplifier. The switch mode (Class D) pro amplifiers can deliver boatloads of current and are designed to work reliably into low Z loads. They have come a very long way in the past five or so years and some of the better designed units some very similar to the switch mode audiophile amps....seriously. Downside is that many (most?) are fan-cooled, so this may be an issue.

Dear Pete: Other than the JC1 that already recomended to you IMHO the ML 20.5s or 20.6s could/should be a great match.

These ML amps are pure Class A an not only goes down beyond 1 Ohm but put at 1 Ohm 800 watts and beyond specs these monoblocks have very high quality sound performance. IMHO till today these amps were/are onof the best amp design ever and you could find it ( second hand/used ) for a relative low price.

Regards and enjoy the music.

For tube: Tube Research Labs
For SS: Krell KAS2 and KAS

Dear Pete: Of course that are other alternatives like the Lamm 1.2 ( hybrid ).

Regards and enjoy the music.
