It could be that you are comparing a price for old stock with that for new stock but for almost all of the amps I've seen, solid state is still generally more expensive. Just remember that high end solid states have always been in a similar price range to low end valve amps.
That could be the case. I began searching for a decent solid-state amp that'll be able to gig and be reliable. Had a little valve failure at church just after soundcheck last Sunday. That'll teach me to have a backup ready ?. But I figure having a solid-state might be a more reliable option or a good backup amp. Don't know about the modeling ones though. They're cheaper than analog solid-states in most cases but the sound quality seems to get worse the higher the volume to my ears....
