I think you're refering to the Stereophile interview by Sam Tellig.
My reading was different. It seems Mike Sanders complained about the high distortion in SET amps, and concluded that his 15wpc Mini Horn was better overall. SET amp distortion is non-linear; it's hideous at full power. If his speakers need a 15wpc amp, then a 3wpc SET amp won't do, at least not as good as his Mini Horn.

If he indeed never used very high efficiency speakers in his 1-year-or-so experiment on SET (as I recall correctly from the article), then the story might be quite different when he needed very little power at much lower distortion and with all the juiciness of SET.
