Thermal Distortion your loudspeaker most likely suffers from it. But do you care?
what about low efficiency planar speakers like apogee scintilla, it seems like they would dissipate heat better.  
McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer
I'm surprised people didn't get this upset when a member on this forum said pass labs amps were midfi.

Schiit Freya + Class A in Stereophile
I've seen preamps like topping come and go, but in 10-20 years nobody will be trying to buy a topping because they will know better.  
Electric cars will ruin late night listening?
Why would the hum from appliances and HVAC be reduced at night?
