Class C is great for ham radio! Ha!
Folks, most class D designs are really a type of Single Ended amp. Something we've been going back to last couple of decades. This may explain why D is finally getting there. The snag class D still deals with is the control loop (feedback). We're still learning - so expect class D to get better and better.
Sound quality depends on the inherent linearity of the amp w/o feedback. Tube guys know this well. Some of us are trying to do this concept with D. Won't happen overnight.
A is just another version of A/B. Bias is used to increase the operational linearity of the devices. It works to a point. Cost is serious $$$$ and heat. Some day, D will incorporate all these factors that are pluses in other topologies. Then we'll all stay cool dudes....
