Amplifier class - whether A, A-B, D, or T is irreverent if the implementation is bad. If all else is equal, class A is the way to go. No compromises and a short signal path are key to achieving optimal performance.
You could have a class D outperform a class A. However, it would be unlikely for a class T to reach some pinnacle level of performance.
