The Plinius itself suggests otherwise. This amp sounds like a completely different beast when biased Class A vs. when it is biased as Class AB. It is SO much better in Class A that it sounds like a different amp, which of course it is not.
All that says is that amp is better in class A. It doesn't say anything other than that.
Now if you could show that in all cases amps sounded better in class A, you'd be on to something.
I'm not denying this is a factor. But its one of many and especially if feedback is involved, likely not paramount.
There are a lot of other factors involved such as power supply design and execution, quality of parts used, design of the feedback network (which isn't trivial) and so on. Pointing at one design characteristic and proclaiming it to be 'the one' as proof of an entire concept across thousands of designs is just that- pointing, but not proof. Its evidence only.
