How long does Class A have?


Hi Guys/Gals
 I have a Sugden A21SE which is a Pure Class A single ended design, I absolutely love this musical amplifier with its strangely plentiful 30wpc, it runs hots as they do, I always enjoy watching the faces of my uninitiated friends when they touch it after I mention they get hot, lol.
But in this modern green era I wonder just how long do Class A amplifiers have before Greta Thunberg gets wind of this inefficient method of creating sound and pisses on the parade?

Thoughts?

Well if you did it in my house be assured you would get the boot.  Cheers!
Your “Comrade” references are out of line. Bet you wouldn’t do it in person.
Well then how did you manage to just speak freely?

Businesses have the right to protect themselves and keep their houses in order. People don’t not have the right to wreck havoc in other peoples houses or places of business. It’s not hard to understand. Having rights does not mean anything goes anywhere anytime. Audiogon mods have the right to delete anything they please in their forum as well. It’s their right. We all have narcissistic tendencies to some degree.  Civil rights protect people from other people when needed. No it’s never perfect but that is how the system works.
Nobody is going to be able to deny your rights nor the rights of others. If they try then take them to task please. That’s the country we live in. That includes the right to be wrong.
The young girl is merely an advocate for her generation. Good thing they have those based on some of the things read here. Narcissism enabled  is the next big epidemic we will find ourselves having to address on a large scale. 
Personally I am anti censorship. Audiogon has rules and you just have to follow the rules. If you break them continuously it is reasonable to expect that eventually there will be a penalty.
Also it’s not valid to assume that everyone is capable of behaving within certain social norms. There may be valid medical reasons why someone acts the way they do. In the end though the rules are the rules and those should be enforced in order to maintain a healthy environment that all can enjoy to the benefit of all including the host.  It’s part of the job to some extent I suppose  but the host should not have to continuously babysit the users to keep their place of business welcoming to all. 
Not long in general but if you have one and love it nobody will make you get rid of it. Also there will always be things sold as long as there are people who want to buy. But not many want to so expect to pay a premium for an increasingly niche item.
