My Aleph 2s are Class A & I don't use them in the summer. I don't enjoy music with my heat pump cycling on & off...... A Class A pre-amp is not as big an issue - much less heat generated.....

Some great products are actually Class A-B. Cello was an example of great A-B. It is much easier for a company to make a preamp class A, than the amp. Go by the sound, not the specs!
