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.

I enjoy warm and full sound out of class A solid or SET tube amp.

 

Thus I am happy to live in Pacific Northwest Washington State.

 

It is not that hot during summer.

 

It is good to have extra heater during winter.😀

 

Also the cost of electricity is the most affordable in WA.

 

Thus I may live in Washington State for my life.
