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 have some Aerial Acoustics 7B and CC3b speakers that are notorious for being hard to drive and loving very large amounts of power.  Has anyone used any Class D amplification on these?  If so, how was the synergy and sound compared to a more common class A/B amp?  I am looking to find out what would be the best solution for these.  They already sound great and image very well, but I want to take it up a large notch and power them adequately so I can get the most out of them.  Anyone have any suggestions?  Comments on possible class D amplification for them?  Advice? 
Do you know if there is a difference between the 543NC and the 523NC?  I know there is more wattage, but does that equate to better sound for difficult speakers?
I don't know if that would make that big of a difference as the amps are not really modular and can't be modified to add or delete channels once built so I assume ATI has some regulator in the mix once they are built...

I really just wonder what the sonic differences would be between the regular and the bridged modules, if any.

I think the Theta Prometheus Amplifiers use the N-Core 400 watt modules and people seem to love them!

I would like to hear more impressions of that ATI amp...how is it performing now that it has a few days on it?
