The toroidal transformers allow wonderfully small packages.  My high
school (back in 1974) bought a Crown D-60, a two-channel, 60 watt per
channel rack-mounted amp that was 1 3/4 inches tall!  Think about it.
The size was pretty magical.  The amp was real reliable, too.

The toroid proabably shows up in high-end stuff becuase the hum stays
inside the transformer.
