So the power supply sags before 2/3 rated output?

I don't know about solid-state amps in general, but this seems to imply particularly flimsy design if they are as bad as this, so that the tube amp sounds more powerful due to power supply rejection. Perhaps it is most true of mid-fi amps and receivers, and explains why there are so many tweak postings about adding capacitance to the power supply filters.

Thanks for an enlightening discussion. I learned something.
