On a point of information, Krells before the KAV series were always
specified as doubling rated power right down to 1 ohm. This isn't
repealing the laws of physics however, as my '50 watt' KSA-50 mk II
actually puts out 105 watts into 8 ohms, 195 watts into 4 ohms, and
does indeed drive 440 watts continuously into a 1 ohm load.

Not staying in Class-A of course :-)

The Kraken amp is Class-A, BTW - it just occured to me that most people here
are not familiar with it and I that I haven't mentioned this previously.

Anything that runs *that* hot, had damn well better have lots of bias
by deliberate intent!
