[Amps] Future of higher power transmitting tubes..............

[Lee Buller]

This is the same question I have.  Looking around the internet and reading as much as possible about the supply of tubes and price increases....I think the solid state amp is going to meet the price point and take over for "bottles."  IMHO!

I plan to treat my 3-500Zs with great respect and make them last 10 or so years if I can.  

Other than that...I am not sure what the answer is...except to save your money for SS amps.  IMHO

Also, the Chinese might get into make HP SS devices which could drive the price of SS amps down.  But, in this day and age, I am keeping a close watch on my wallet.

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?
