No it does not.

your broad stroke of the brush misses reality. Many exceptional amps designed by John Curl, Nelson Pass, Dan D'Agostino do just that!

I'd hardly consider 500-600 watts as "a little idle current". ;)

Regarding the Parasound JC-1+, As the JC 1+ operates in class-A up to 25W into 8 ohms when its bias is set to Normal, it runs hot.
