Great article. Nelson has the ability to write in such a way that appeals to both technically-minded folks and regular people like me.

Thank you for posting. I am wondering if the rebirth of the interest in Tubes will create more offerings of efficient speakers to pair with Class A as well? I have spent hours trying to put together an class A system for the bedroom and it is not a simple search. I finally understand the differences in the topology thanks to this well written article.
