Luxman R-117 Pictures

The output transistors for one channel. It is a fully-complementary arrangement. There are two NPN and two PNP transistors. By my reckoning, the Luxman R-117 uses a class-G power amplifier. There are two sets of rail voltages; ±74 VDC and ±102 VDC. When the output-power requirement cannot be met by the ±74 V supply, the ±102 V supply is switched to the collectors of the output transistors. Two of the six big transistors in the above image handle the collector voltage switching.
