Sure, I can't see the point in building a 4CX10,000D amp to run 400w but a 5kw amp to run a k and a half seems ok to me.  You pays your money and you takes your choice

Some of those 5KW capable amps were certainly running flat out in this 
week-end WPX contest! When you answer a 9+60dB signal with a measly 1KW 
Tx, and he can't even hear you, something fishy is afoot!
