Class D is just Dandy!

I thought it was time we had a pro- Class D thread. There's plenty of threads about comparisons, or detractors of Class D.

That's fine, you don't have to like Class D amps, and if you don't please go participate on one of those threads.

For those of us who are very happy and excited about having musical, capable amps that we can afford to keep on 24/7 and don't require large spaces to put them in, this thread is for you.

Please share your experiences with class D amps!

I just replaced a Schiit Vidar with a Parasound Zonemaster 2305 and find it a great addition to my system (and I really like the Vidar!).

I can’t speak to the technology points being raised however for myself Class D gives me a level of performance that I could never afford in a Class A, A/B amp.


Interesting.  I would only offer the following on that.  The Vidar measures better in many of the specs like crosstalk and frequency range.  It also costs about half of the Parasound 2350(I don't think there is a 2305, you must mean the 2350).  

I suspect the reason you like it over the Vidar is because it is giving you 3 x the wpc.  You could get 400 wpc if you had 2 Vidars, and ran them in mono, for roughly the same cost as the 2350.  Different strokes for different folks...
