Why would anyone want class AB amp when class A always sounds better ?

Wow the viper is drawn to another thread.

For a 22 post member who stalks, your way too uncool/and technically inept to associate your self with Ducati, better suited to mo-ped.
Stick to what you believe in, in those little black dots https://ibb.co/LpDpf3f

Now, now George. You are starting to sound as narcissistic and ill tempered as MC. 

It's all based on one's perceived reality. 

Oh puhleeeze, everyone knows that Qobuz streaming in HR through a  Hybrid-Digital Purifi Eigentakt amp sounds better than a record player through A or AB.  C'mon out of that dark ages cave you analoggers are in...

There have been only a handful of true class a amplifiers made it takes a lot to make one and very few have ever accomplished it. In solid state amps only a handful and in tube only a handful also they are incredibly difficult to make and unreliable due to heat generation because of the 10 percent efficiency. So most of the makers if not all stopped making them. Now most makers build an amp to play class a to a certain watt level then switch to ab mode because of this and this results in the amplifier still sounding like a class a amp because it is at low powers.
