Default Re: Solid State Class A Amplifier

Having owned solid state Class A amps for several yrs,I'd be interested in building one,if only to see exactly what goes into one,and I'd love to try something along the lines of a PassLabs Zen or Aleph,having looked at Pass's site so many times over the years,and seen some of the amazing things that some people have cooked up(have any of you seen the lightbulb Zen?)

A really good SS Class A amp has it's good and bad points,but will always sound very different from a tubed amp,but the power can be very useful at times,and 100W+ of Class A is lovely.
