Buzzwords galore in the topology description:
"The PA-3 has a “Current” output rather than a “Voltage” output. This causes the amplifier to “interact” a bit with the load, giving a bit of a supple sound. The output stage uses MOSFETs in a current output configuration rather than the typical voltage follower configuration (source follower). MOSFETs have often been associated with a “soft” or “hazy” sound. The “supple” sound I refer to is not like this at all, it is a much more “organic” sound."
Output impedance spec is 0.5 Ohms. Does that make it a current source?
