If I get a chance I'll have a look. :-)

excerpt - "try and find a transistor circuit that can deliver 50V rms at
less than 1% distortion with no feedback!"


If they mean "into a loudspeaker load with an impedance between 4 and 8
Ohms" when considering domestic audio power amps, then I suspect you could
match this with:

"try to find a *valve* circuit that can deliver 50V rms at less than 1%
distortion and no feedback.!"

Slainte,
