No verdant all tube amplifiers have a much greater amount of audible noise vs solid state amplifiers.

Even with the worlds best output transfomers you still have audibile noise. 

Listen to the best in solid state you will hear 0 noise through the speakers.

Op there is no such thing as too much power on the contrary speakers blow from too little power and clipping. 

 If you are looking at making a change in your system you need to look at the entire playback chain and determine the weakest link! 

Spectral makes wonderful amplifiers which drive Verity speakers well!

Also tube amplifiers require maintainance, are noisy and generate considerable heat. That is not saying they dont sound good.

If you make a change do it for the right reason.

Verdant of course the amplifiers you import are magically quiet.

We have sold  many major brand of tube amplifiers out there, from Mastersound, Unision Research, ARC,Vac, Conrad Johnson, Manley Labs, Cary audio, and others.

We have sold Class A, Class A/B, push pull, single ended and hybrids.

All tube amplifiers have an inherantly higher noise floor compared to solid state devices, most audiophiles consider this part of the natural limitations of a tube amplifier.

We are not saying your tube amplifiers aren't good, but sheesh man, the first thing you do is hit on this guy to look at one of your amplifiers when the reason for him even moving out of the amplifier he has is silly.

The OP should evaluate all of his components and what he is trying to accomplish. If his Spectral amplifier is a good amplifier perhaps he needs to upgrade his source, or his preamp or his cabling.

Not to mention there are a ton of great tube amplifiers as well.
