No Class B or AB: Crossover distortion is an issue and must use negative feedback otherwise distortion would generally be unacceptably high and highly audible.
Tell that to Ayre

If I ever meet CHarles in person I surely will...he might even agree with me but you know he's gotta sell amps and it is easier to the brainwashed I suppose.
Based on what I have heard from Ayre they aren't bad...his Theta Dreadnaught design was quite good on some Thiels...but a pair of BAT VK120 monos were a lot better...
The only point I was really making is that Ayre has been making low distortion Class A/B SS amps with no feedback anywhere, so it certainly can be done.
I don't know which amp is better but the statement means nothing until you define better in a way that many knowledgeable people basically can agree on.
