...I agree that solid state keeps getting better and it's much more than parts you could put in vintage amps.
Part of it (as E-Stat mentioned) is stiffer power supplies but you also have better matched output devices (transistors, FETs) and a greater awareness of the need to eliminate odd order distortion (Curl) in newer designs.
If you read the Charles Hansen interview in last month's Stereophile, he describes his journey in improving his products and what he's found over the past 10 years.
