Is there a general industry standard for the amount of Class A power in Class A/B amplifiers?For instance SimAudio has always touted that they run Class A for the first 5 watts.Curious how other higher end manufacturers approach this..
The class A power for a classAB amp is a function of the standing bias current in the output stage. But also relevant is the load impedance - running with 4ohm speakers will halve your classA power compared to 8ohm.
