    That amp may be class A for the first 5 wpc but in no way puts out 40-60watts in Class A. Like I said before, it would need massive heat sinks. At idle it would be putting out 4x's the number of watts in heat alone. Class A amps run very hot and need massive heat sinks and none are seen. My Parasound Halo amp runs in Class A for the first 10watts and then Class AB . It weighs over 60#'s and has massive heat sinks running down both sides of the unit. Some companies will make claims of Class A when it is truly AB.
