WHat is the sonic effect when a 20 watt tube amp (PP triode) only has to output between 0,01- 0.1 watt?I have a modded Jadis amp which i belief may even sound better than a pure SET because of its mods done in Holland and in Australia , but can i use it for an extreme 108 db sensitivity driver? I dont want to sell the Jadis, it is too beautiful. One its mods effects is: Induced Permeability for the output transfomers. http://www.customanalogue.com/jlti_el34.htm

Crossover distortion happens at full power, not low power. In low power, one side isn't being cut off, both are in class A, so there is no crossover distortion.
...and the other being the splitting of the input signal. The latter happens at all signal levels.

That is not crossover distortion, it is imbalance in phase splitting that leads to 2nd order distortion. If the order of this distortion is small it actually leads to a balancing out of the harmonic spectrum of distortion, since the PP amp cancels out most of the 2nd, leaving mostly 3rd.
