power amp draw


Would a class-a design 25wpc amp draw more electricity than a class-a-b 100wpc amp? The Monarchy SM70-pro uses about 2.5 amps and the Classe CA-100 runs at about 100w idle. I am clueless. Which would use more electricity? Thanks

Wow! I am just a fat guy who loves great steaks and great audio. I am just curious to know which amp would use the most electricity if left on all the time and why. Thanks
LOL. Clearly all things being equal Class A by definition will contribute the greatest to Global Warming.
from a electrical stand point,,,the class a amps will draw about 3 times the current compared to class a/b,hence the heat given off.
