However, there are A/B amps with no switching distortion and much quicker than lots of class A amps. Just because it's class A doesn't mean it's better than any other topology. Conceptually, it is ideal with regards to this issue. As far as tubes go, you're not going to get there without mosfets in an ss amp.
Class A Watts
Are class A watts more powerful then class AB, or is a watt just a watt. In other words would a 100 watt class A amp struggle with speakers that a 200 Watt class AB amp can handle just fine? I guess current would matter as well. Anyway, I was just curious.
