In Reply to: RE: Do all the calcs you want, mate - actual comparison of different amps ... posted by Travis on September 30, 2010 at 16:13:20:
The big McIntosh MC501s run pretty cold actually as they are mostly Class B. We had the pair hooked up to a PS Audio power regenerator (just to see what would happen as it was only a 500 watter) and at idle the two amps together only were drawing 90 watts of power. That means each 500 watt monoblock is idling at only 45 watts of power draw, which means not much bias current running through them there output transistors (probably less than 1 watt Class A power available).
