A pair of 811As can output 400W plus, and Hammond can provide OPTs for this service at reasonable cost. No little 35W pentode can even come close to the sound quality of 811A triodes running at 1.5KV.

"Not a typical audiophile mode..."
It's less common because it's more difficult and costly to do right. The reward is that a pair of 811As will simply squash lesser tubes. I do rather like the idea of trying a 6146 as a grounded-anode preamp though.
