Mine does but not to an extent that bothers me. I always thought all Class A amps got somewhat warm?

I live in summer temperatures all year round and it doesn’t get too hot nor does it heat up the room

added a gold knob for better grip and contrast

In other words, it remains a B class if extra power is not needed?
From one of the designers here:

SA-1's Class A model:
Balanced 16 ohm load: below 500mw;
Balanced 32 ohm load: below 1000mw;
Balanced load of 68 ohms: below 3000mw;
Balance the load above 68 ohms: almost all power is Class A;


So operates in class A mode per the above. Anything over and it switches to class B.
