    In my novice opinion since it doesn't draw full power at idle, or even at 1/3 output power, and since i haven't heard them referred to as space heaters it can't be class A. Distortion seems too low for it's fairly high power output to be class B. So, i think it's probably safe to assume it's one of the many variations of AB.

    Yeah what he said. It is Class AB. As opposed to myself, whom the redhead insists has no class.:mooning:
