Romy,

Did you ever listen to a Class A amp made by Andy Rapapport which later became the Octave Research OR1?

I never opened one up to look but I remember someone telling me (possibly salesman BS, I can't remember) about how much attention was paid in that amplifier to maintaining an incredibly stable operating temperature. I remember using one for a while and it definitely took several days to settle down but once it had, it was better than any other SS amp I've listened to before or since.
