Wouldn't the design be the largest factor? A v.s. A/B?
not to derail the conversation from Bacon.... mmm...
True, but not necessarily the class of operation. What about the devices used, topology, feedback methods, phase and gain margin, output impedance/damping factor, individual distortion harmonics, TIM, IMD, slew rate, dynamic current capability, etc, etc. I guess where I'm going with this is that it's misleading to look at a few specs of two amplifiers, like output power into a given load and THD, and then suggest they will sound the same.
Pass the bacon and the toast.
