I had the Aleph's "pure class A" at my house and then auditioned the Audio Research 100.2. It too wiped the floor with the Pass. Not all class A designs are better.
Class A amplifiers - which are considered the best
I have heard Accuphase makes the highest quality pure class A amplifiers. Wanted to get some feedback on folks experience with their amps and any other amp manufacturers that would be in their league (or better) for class a amps. thanks
