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?

Schu - you are correct sir! Fortunately for me, the expensive tubes in my setup are for small signals only, so last verrrrrry long. Power tubes (6C33C) are plentiful and relatively inexpensive and do not require matching in my amps. So I am a lucky (by design) dog. Woof woof!
Barrysandy take a look at atmasphere's ma2 and ma3 amps;they will drive anything; but generally I think you are correct.
I am a tube guy and also have a pair of roland 6 monoblocks and it is nice to flip flop back and forth; I always wanted to listen to the Moscode au402 amp but never got a chance.
What hybrid are you looking at?
It's either best, worst or in the middle of both worlds, but both worlds for sure.
Not to mention you need to lay out a C-note or ten for a good tube tester unless you get off switching 8 tubes in and out to find the hiss a couple times a month.
SS has improved enough in the last decade or so that IMO tubes, though I still have a tube amp and 3 tube preamps, are a thing of the past.
