RE: Conrad Johnson and tube question

Not a great fit for most tubes amps unless money is no object. I can't imagine the 20's playing large scale music full tilt with a tube amp that wouldn't put a sizable dent in your wallet. The 275 watt CJ Art monos are in the 35-40K range for instance. Then there are the VTL's and AR's at equally ridiculous prices. Big, rugged high power tube amps routinely cost as much as a decent sedan. The Quicksilver V4's already mentioned might work in the 5-6K range. A lot depends on how loud you listen and what type of music as well.
