Van Alstine's FET Valve amps. Well built, relatively inexpensive, very good sound, great service:

I owned the FET Valve Ultra 550 for a while before I went all tube.

ButlerAudio.com - outstanding Tube/MOSFET amps. I have their TDB-5150 and it is real peach of an amp. Cruise over to their website and read about them and their revolutionary circuitry...

6 Moons did a very favorable review.

Pathos amps use a tube front end and ss output stage. Don't know about their size and cost, though.

I assume you mean power amps, but the Pathos Classic One integrated fits your bill, too.
