Air conditioned house and hot running Audio Research CL60 finally got to be too much for my wife, and me. Went to a tube/mosfet hybrid, Moscode 600 Maxi, but... went back to a VT100. But now I'm thinking GaNFET.
Worth a try.
Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll
A discussion elsewhere about the future of Class A made me wonder how true one statement really is. So the questions are...
Have you done away with your Class A Amp due to Heat concerns?
Will you be moving away from Class A Amp due to Heat concerns?
Will you never buy a Class A Amp due to Heat concerns?
I only have a class A/B unit that does Class A up to 6 watts with almost no heat so really can't speak for those who have used in the past or currently own and run Class A Amps.
