Class A amps

I've read a few articles on class A amps but still don't have a good understanding of how it affects sound quality. I've even seen amps which can be swithced into class A mode or AB. Does anyone have experience with this type of unit? Does class A have a true audible advantage or can it be detected only by test instruments? If it is audible, in what resepects? Thanks, Rick M.

Lets be perfectly honest here folks, who actually listens to music on output levels of 50 watt and above


I use way more than 50 watts, my apogee duetta 2 speakers are not very sensitive, but they sound phenomenal.

Take it up with Nelson Pass. The Messiah of solid state class-A amplification (not you)
And why his top of the line amps are low power Class-A!! and always have been.

Aren't his top of the line amps the XS series, which are not low power.
