"Who wants sag / noise in a hi-fi PSU?"
A tubed rectified, critical inductance power supply, with the appropriate amount of capacitance, feeding a Class A circuit will not sag and is as quiet as a power supply gets.
"In terms of ragged waveforms, solid-state diodes are the worst, followed by Schottky diodes and HEXFRED's, followed by conventional tube rectifiers, followed by TV damping diodes, which are the smoothest of all in terms of the AC waveform on the power trans secondary."
