There are some SS or hybrid amps that sounds similar to the tube amps, cost not object, and power equal or more than 100W. Thanks

Just how do tube amps sound like? Can their sound be generalized into one category? IMO, it's not possible.

If you want both accuracy and musicality, then research the following amps:
Mark Levinson no.33H monos, Blue Circle BC206, Pass Labs X series of monoblocks, Pass Labs X.5 series of amps, Krell FPB, Krell Evolution. Classe Omega series.

It's all a matter of taste. An amplifier needs to blend in sonically with the rest of your system though. That's a challenge.
