Here’s one of the places where I read class A , could be rumour of course but the heatsinks are pretty big compared to the amp itself.Originally Posted by Macca

It may not be biased far into Class A operation, that could explain the relatively modest size of the heatsinks for a 25 watt output.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I think that's likely. Not that it matters.

It's not pure class A.
A pure class A amplifier will double its output power with each halving of the load. Hence 25W into 8 Ohms and 50W into 4 Ohm, and so on only limited the current capability.
Not surprisingly, class A amplifiers run hot (the maximum theoretical efficiency is 50%, and most amps have a somewhat lower efficiency).
But whatever - Micromega have a good reputation in the world of audio.

That's one ugly-looking mother of an amplifier!I’ve been waiting to buy the Duson for some years and now finally the wait is over .
100W/channel, with the first 20W being class A.
