Why Is There Feedback in the S-30?

OTL Asylum

OTL, Output Transformerless Amplifier User Group.

I apologize if this has been discussed before. I am familiar with the outstanding sonic performance of the MA-1 model, but do not need that much power, as I now have more efficient speakers. Hence, I am interested in the less known S-30 model.
However, I noticed that the S-30 does not quite match the other models in features, and also uses feedback, which I feel will degrade the sound quality.
Can anyone explain why feedback is used in the S-30, and how it compares (sonically) to it's more powerful sibblings.
TIA!
