Class D Integrated Amplifier Recommendations.

I am very happy with my NAD C298 pair of amps. I have them set to be monoblocks. 

Fast, clean, stunning stereo, lifelike voices, and exciting bass. 

They replaced a 40Kg Roksan class AB power amp of similar cost. 

I have an LSA Voyager GAN amp.  I have been very happy with it so far.  Clean and clear sounding without issues at this point. 

I second the Jeff Rowland Design Group Continuum. Those are phenomenal integrated. You won’t find much better, especially in its price range. Look for a Continuum 500 or the S2. They are that good and beautiful to look at too!

I have a Primare i32 with the added streamer and I think it's great. The newer model is the i35 but they have two models below that that easily fit in your price range. 

Look into PS Audio also. They introduced a Class D Integrated a few years ago.

@juanmanuelfangioii I have sold off my big heavy class AB amps. Besides the tube integrateds I have, I have now amassed a bench of Class D amps I am happy with. These include the AGD Audion monoblocks, and a pair of Jeff Rowland Model 125 amps that I run in bridged mode. Both are great. I am particularly impressed with the soundstage with the AGD Audions. IMO, Class D has arrived. Besides the sound, I also enjoy them being light weight. If you want to go more budget you can look at the Mytek Brooklyn Amp+ and the Orchard Audio GaN monoblocks. But I personally am not aware of any Class D integrateds amps. But I would be interested to learn of some. 

@yakbob kind of like that stempunk industrial look to the Rose. 

@riccitone Had a PA-10  in a office system and it was okay would have liked trying them bridged in mono. 

No offense had several NAD units and they all went back with technical issues. M10, M32 and one other I do not recall the model.

Love the comparison of the 536 to the 33. Still not looking at NAD with their track record. 

OP I saw you’re unimpressed with NAD but I’ve had the NAD M33 for a couple months now and feel it is very good. Especially given the price point.  That’s in comparison to my Bartók driving Mark Levinson 536 monos which I also have. 

I’ve recently purchased a GoldNote PA-10 which touts some kind of a GaN architecture combined with class A (or resembling a class A) design. Not exactly a hybrid, still more “class D” overall. It sounds spectacular, even running out of my integrated through preamp out. Looking at getting a decent tube pre to accompany it. Maybe get another one and run them dual mono.

it’s a power amp, not integrated. But just wanted to advocate the great possibilities with GaN offerings. It’s tonally rich, balanced, great stage, and turned my speakers into super quick little monsters.

Agree with @twoleftears that a GaN-based integrated might well be worth waiting for.  There are a couple LSA integrateds being introduced by Underwood Hifi, one of which looks like it could be available soon…

5) 200wpc GAN Integrated amp with DAC, phono stage & headphone amp (Hopefully shipping by June 2022) Projected retail is $2,500.00

6) State of the art GAN based 400wpc integrated amp with upgradable DAC, superb headphone amp & phone stage-ETA of late 2022 with a projected $4500.00-$5000.00 retail.

If the Rogue Pharaoh is anything like their Spinx V3, it might be a very good choice. 

GaNfet technology is where it's at right now in class D, and there really aren't that many integrated amps that use GaNfets.  

I've not heard it (most haven't) but the forthcoming Rose RA180 looks interesting in the GAN class D category.

I realize the looks can be polarizing, and evil tone controls, but it looks to be an extremely flexible unit.

@waorwraith no no not at all. Some folks are making recommendations of  AGD and others that re power amps. Sorry for the confusion. 

@juanmanuelfangioii you stated "Looking for Class D Integrated Amps" after my post, was that in response? The S2 is an integrated D class amp

Mr. Ralph is a class act and I enjoyed this video. Thank you @hilde45 for posting this. 

@nonoise No sir never had it in my system just a demo at a local dealer and was so un impressed I had no interest in an in home audition. Was a complete Technics system, Speakers, Integrated and CD.

No rub just not for me.

Possibly of interest. Ralph discussing his Class D in 2022 with SF Audio Society.

I have the Technics SU-G700M2 and it lacks for.....nothing. I have it paired with the matching SL-G700 SACD player and need not look anywhere else. Best sound I've had in my system.

Not lean or bright. Took a while for the SACD player to grow some hair (about 6 weeks) and the lower mids and bass out of my JBL 4319 monitors is rich, taut, full and detailed, complimenting the rest of the range. 

I have some of the most natural sounding music I've heard, so it must be system dependent. Sorry it didn't work out for you.

All the best,
Nonoise

Looking for Class D Integrated Amps

The latest batch doesn't necessarily equate to better, want is D class done correctly.. I have a Jeff Rowland Continuum S2 that I'm parting with that's close to your price range. Fantastic sounding D class, very close the the Aavik U300 it replaced. Read the reviews, there's a lot and they're stellar.

massive give-away here  <<<<---------------🙄

just remember that bargain shopping can lead to the most expensive purchases of all... 😉🤣

I think the Devialet offerings are a hybrid design with great reviews.  They can be had used for just under your budget.

Legacy iV2. You will be shocked and happy!

i have not personally heard the new technics stuff... i do agree that pretty nad class d is mediocre sonically, easily surpassed by other amps

i would suggest class d mini gan 5 on low end (a lot of amp, very good sound, for the very modest cost)

otherwise, consider devialet or agd on higher end... they are very very good

atmasphere another well reputed new entrant into higher end class d but i have not personally tried
