[hifinutt]

A spec sheet I just saw said "static consumption 125W" so not much in class A if the spec is correct.

Those stats can't be right for pure class A a quick google brings up a Paul Messenger review where he states that the input stage is pure class A and generates half the heat (and presumably most of the static power consumption). but on the plus side he also says it's the best amp he's ever heard!

[sq225917]

That's why I asked, as those internal heatsinks look good for about 50 watts in class A. The monos are far and away the best power amps I've ever heard.

if any one wants to demo this with some speakers they need to act fast as summits going late next week and nothing to play through
