question to Plinius Amp owner

Just curious to know what is the sounding difference you experience when you switch between class A and class AB? I guess this comparison might be more objective since the rest of circuit is the same except the bias. Can you confortably draw the conclusion that class a mode is better in every aspect ?
Thanks!

CDMA,
to answer your question IMHO the diffence in AB is it sounds like a very good 2 channel system playing in your room, in class A it sounds like very good musicians are playing in your room.

So to get the best what we do guys ?
Leave the Plinius always on o.k. ?
with signal for 20 minutes in AB then turn the bias in A for 1 hour ???
or give signal directly in class A and wait for 1 hour ?

please share your opinions, so we can all get the optimum from our Plinius !

I leave my Plinius on AB 24/7. When I want class A it only seems to take a short 5 minutes to start soundind better. 20 minutes it's good to go!

The owners manual says to leave it on. That is what I do. When you want to listen critically switch to class A. I usually start listening right away and the sound just keeps improving.
