Abstract
A first circuit unit of an audio amplifier includes a first emitter follower connected to an pre stage input terminal, a second emitter follower connected to an pre stage input terminal, a main transistor connected to an output path of the first emitter follower and an output path of the second emitter follower, a first resistor and a second resistor, which are series-connected between the output path of the first emitter follower and a DC voltage source, and a zener diode connected to a series-connection point between the first resistor and the second resistor. A second circuit unit has a circuit configuration that is complementary to the first circuit unit. A path leading to a collector of each transistor configuring the first and second emitter followers in one of the circuit units is connected to the series-connection point in the other circuit unit.
