If you have a "dead zone"

Where both finals are in cutoff at idl, it's class "C" not "B" . . . Not good for audio. Almost all audio amps claiming "B" operation are really "AB" with idle bias current set low but high enough to prevent both finals from being cutoff simultaneously under real-world conditions of manufacturing and operation. It could be argued that true class B exists only at a single operating point where "AB" and "C" have an infinite number of points.
