Clayton Audio Class A

Accuphase Class A amps do as well. 8ohm 60w, 4ohm 120w, 2ohm 240w, 1 ohm 480w. Bridged mode, 8ohm 240w, 4ohm 480w, 2ohm 960w.

Accuphase has serious power.

Thanks technik; Accuphase is serious power class A!  I guess what was confusing me about the Clayton S-2000 is that it is a single chassis dual mono class A design with each channel already bridged. (2 x 75 watt class A amplifiers per side)for output of 300 wpc class A into 8/600 into 4.  Essentially two monophonic bridged amps in one chassis.

I doubt that the Accuphase amps are of the dual-bridged design. This particular design does have a problem with low impedances. Too much current draw - too much heat from the output stages! That's why Adcom abandoned it after the GFA-1 and went back to conventional class AB output stages.Without that cooling fan it would overheat and shut down!

Check out the Accuphase website roberjerman, I could be wrong but those are the number posted and I have the A65, granted in stereo mode only due to available funds to get a second one but stereo mode for 60 watts of class a has serious power.

     I've got one of those class A Accuphase amps. 
     Had to install 2 bridged coal furnaces in the basement to generate enough electricity to run it then 2 more bridged out by the pool to run the ac to cool down my room.
     I can't tell when it's sunny out anymore and I think the wife and kids all might have lung cancer. 
     It's pretty cool how it glows that bright orangish-red and pulsates like a lava pool to let me know it's all warmed up and ready for some tunes.
     But it sounds terrific! So, definitely worth it.  Oh yeah, worth it, worth it, no doubt about it.
