Luxman has been making excellent class A ss amps for many decades actually longer then Pass labs has been around. maybe even Threshold.
If your looking-interested in "vintage" look for a Luxman L-5## series they started early 80's. Best of them was the L560 (100v-220v) one of the last big integrated amps they made before the newer versions you see today. The L560 was 50wpc class A, used a heat pipe so no huge cooling fins, nice wood sides and top but thick alum faceplate very classy looking if I do say so.
There was a L530, L540, L560 all the same power just newer (by a year each) as you got higher the L530 and L540 were available in the North American market the L560 only Japan and Europe but that's the one to look for even if you need a step up-down transformer.
Pass Labs, Sungden, Levenson (if you can find one used) and Accuphase (over priced in NA imo) are the other big players in Class A, as others have said. All excellent I've had all but a Levenson class A in my system at one time or another and all were great.
