What I do want is a Porsche GT3 for 30 thousand dollars...

Does it need to be built to scale?

Speaking seriously now, I want to see a high voltage transistor amp for speakers, running at somewhere between 150V-200V and using output transformers.  Tube sound with solidstate convenience.

You kind of lost me with that last part there.

How do transistors and transformers equate to tube sound?

High voltage transistor amps, as was discussed in a thread here not too long ago.  Lowered distortion, similar distortion characteristic, lots of voltage headroom, etc.

Oh, ok, I see what you're getting at now.
