bat tube amps relating to heat displacement


i have a VK-5i pre that does not create heat concerns. the aes cary sixpac amps felt like a blow torch so i thought i needed to go to ss for an amp. wanted to match the pre with a bat amp but before i do leave with world of total tube sound (which i hate to do) enter the combo world of pre tube/amp ss i wondered two things: first, would this type of bat pairing work well? second, would the bat tube amp be any less warm that the cary?

thanks for any thoughts.

thank you. i had a mc ss integrated 6600 and liked to look at it but couldn't figure out what all the fuss was about how "great" mc was supposed to be. then i heard tubes and for once realized just how good music could sound.

strange that in this world of ours two things haven't been figured out: one, how to make tubes run cool and two, how to get rid of all the stinking wires!

best,
