Default Parallel TPA6120 to drive speaker

Has anyone tried to parallel couple TPA61020 to make a power (<10 W) amplifier for speaker?

I've paralleled a pair to bias into Class A, also applied "extreme heatsinking": (+ totem pole cascade for higher V swing, total chip count 6 for stereo headphone amp)

http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showt...58#post1392458

same chip count (6 TPA6120 chips, scroll up in link) and heatsink could put out 40+ Wrms into 8 Ohms as bridged/paralleled mono amp at the typical Imax spec

or ~12 W/ch stereo - with current reserve to double into 4 Ohms
