Class D amps,bang for your buck ones

Hello

First off,

I don't know much about class D amps, I did buy a Sonic Impact T-amp from Parts Express once to play with, I returned it because I don't have the speakers for it.

I did manage to hook it up to a pair of BIC Venturi horn speakers, and was floored with the clarity of the amp.

Those speakers had so many problems that I just didn't want to monkey with them, bad x-overs with busted pots,only sometimes could I get them to work right.

So, this leads me to my question.

Whats a high value class D amp with some hp/balls to drive normal speakers?

I'm looking for the Forte 4 of class D's, assuming (class D)is a tripath based/type amp.

Any suggestions or comments welcome.

I have an Accuphase pre and a minimax pre to use.

Thanks

"Excellent sound mating with Gallo 3.1."

This is probably because Anthony Gallo develop his speakers AND , as a rule, display his speakers (CES 2009, I am not sure about RMAF 2009) with class D amplifier - Musician III by Spectorn Audio.

As a matter of fact many other speaker designers like late John Danlavy, Albert von Schweikert use Spectron amplifiers as well in their speaker developments

All The Best
