Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll

I love my EL34 push pull bespoke integrated amp. 6CA7, whatever. I think it uses about 300 watts.

Should things warm up I flick on the air conditioning which draws about 2000 watts.

I’m fortunate to have a dedicated transformer on the power pole supplying electricity to my home.

Thanks for all the answers so far, the consensus with this small sampling is still what I expected, 

Of course.  You ask leading questions.

By the way, the word heat is not a proper noun and so there is no reason why it ought to be capitalised.

Having said that, I look forward to consulting with the dude who makes March Audio amps. 

Class D technology is something to think about for anyone seeking nirvana, should one understand how appropriate components have to be matched.

Otherwise, not.

Hot amps are more likely to catch fire.

I read that story and my first question would be something about the fuse that was used in the amp that caused such a mess.

If there were even the slightest chance that naming the manufacturer would spare someone else this inconvenience and potential danger, I would do so, but the law of averages suggests that the next time a modern electrolytic capacitor fails in such spectacular fashion, it will be in the power supply of a product from a different company. 

That lame excuse does not hold up to scrutiny, at least not in my country which bears no similarities with America.  The dodgy manufacturer ought to be named and shamed.  Should lives have been lost the dude would be guilty of criminal negligence.
