Not very realist..
IRFs devices need at least 200mA , if not more, to work
linearly enough...
Using this minimal value yield a 1.6A quiescent current with 8 pairs,
that is, about 320W thermal dissipation at iddle...
You can reduce the idle current, but linearity wil be catastrophic..
 
Not even HItachi s lateral fets can be used with so low
quiescent currents , but if linearity is not a concern ,
20mA should do it, it can even be recuced to 0 , pure Class B,
why not ?. But then, we are no more talking about high fidelity...

Linearity at 100kHz
 
When it vibrates so pretty, I guess something is wrong.

Federmann, the signals are SMPTE IMD 250Hz+8kHz and CCIF IMD 13+14kHz. The CCIF IMD would test the amplifier zero crossings at different slopes and amplitudes. The SMPTE IMD would show shape of high frequency, low amplitude signal carried on high amplitude, low frequency signal. Again, it reveals crossover distortion, if present.
 
🙂 I have similar signals on a Denon test CD...

Mr Federmann,
please can we see the amplifier capacitively loaded as I mentioned before in post #594
Not a simulation, a real 'scope measurement on the amplifier.

It's a very valid test IMO.

The question was

the output at say around 1 and 10 volts pk pk output at 10 khz when loaded capacitively with perhaps a 1 or 2 uF cap. Thanks

I amplifier no longer. Values will supply the next piece.
