Default Velleman K40x0, the very model of an all-round amp


overmatched to the Tannoys. It has around 16 to 18W in Class A alone.
I sometimes used mine for driving a bass bin, where its 100W in Class
A/B could sometimes come into play, at least theoretically (I'm not a
headbanger).




hey-Hey!!!,
An amp with maximum output happening with one phase of its PP set cut
off is *NOT* class A. A real class A amp has both phases conducting at
maximum power, and not from some variable pitch grid winding, remote
cut-off stuff either.

That Vellman amp is an AB, and barely so at that.
cheers,
Douglas
