RE: NO

Well there is old school technology for this called the motor generator set (MG set for short) which can easily handle thousands of watts.

They are kind of large mechanical beasts, the well built ones work very well. In the "old days" these used to be used for high powered rectifiers with AC motors and DC generators, but you can get them with AC motors and AC generators so no commutators involved.

You might not want one of these in the listening room though.

Unfortunately the only ones I know that are currently being produced are big monster commercial things for hundreds of thousands of watts, slight overkill for a stereo system!
