Class A amplifier alternative?


Hi everyone, 

I am looking for an amp with about 200-300 watt/8ohm/channel for my speakers. People say that Class A is the best to have. However, with this power, Class A amp would be super heavy (for me) The amp at this power is usually 100 lbs or higher. I wonder if there is any other solution here that doesn't compromise the sound quality? My budget is $3000 (used items). 

 

Just FYI, I once tried class D but the sound is very clinical, thin and sterile in my system. 

 

Thank you!

Huy

You won't find any used and will need to raise your budget to $5Kish but soon you will be able to buy the new Atma-Sphere Class D mono blocks. Even after some time, I don't think you will find any used because I don't think anyone will want to part with them.

Hi Huy,

I believe the Atma-Sphere Class D mono blocks will soon be in full production.

And you can place an order now.
