Sorry to (partly) contradict you, Eli...

...but 30 watts from a single PP pair of 300B's should be perfectly possible provided the amp is set up for class AB operation. An example is George Wright's AU-30 amp, and there are others. For pure class A, I would agree with you. OTOH even more than 30W would be possible in class AB2, at the cost of considerably higher distortion.

A PP-300B amp could be a great partner to an LS3/5A, but bass extension will still be very limited without a sub, as others said.
