Isn't "Bang for the Buck" the entire point of Class D? For very little engineering outlay, one can sell a decent sounding, high powered, extremely energy efficient amplifier that costs far less (or should!) than any normal Class A or AB solid state or tube amp of similar output wattage and sonic purity. Weighs a lot less, too so shipping costs are less.
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
