That may be true, but in my opinion the tubes spec gain of 13 dB, 65 watts
should have driven the 811H amp to at least the same output power as the
811A amp. And I would think with 4 tubes the max Power Out would have
increase to maybe 800-900 watts, versus the 700 watts from the three tube
811A amp.

Even you paraller one hundred 811As, the power gain is same as a single
811A!
