What is class A output stage? Where are class A amplifiers used?

A Class A amplifier stage passes the same load current even when no input signal is applied so large heatsinks are needed for the output transistors. These types of devices are basically two transistors within a single package, one small “pilot” transistor and another larger “switching” transistor.

The Class A Amplifier more suitable for outdoor musical systems, since the transistor reproduces the entire audio waveform without ever cutting off. As a result, the sound is very clear and more linear, that is, it contains much lower levels of distortion.
