Re: why is a 5W tube amp louder than a 20W SS amp
Some people just did it. Some people did it on purpose. Heck, Marshall didn't even optimize the primary side to what the tubes wanted to see. They just used what was available until later. Why do you think a JTM45 only really made 30 watts clean even though it had a decently high B+? KT66s and 5881s can dissipate 25W and 23W each respectively, so a pair could theoretically put out around 50W.
