I’m trying to understand which components and parts in a solid state power amplifier determine the power output. Let’s say we have an amplifier that outputs “x” watts per channel at 8 ohms, 20-20K, etc.
Assuming the same physical layout, circuit design, and topology - which specific parts would need to be changed/upgraded in order for the output power to be increased by say 30% above “x”? Power transformer, output transistors, main filter caps, all of the above? I understand other parts like heat sinks might need an upgrade – but trying to identify which specific components influence power output.
