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 owned three class D amps. I now own a ATI 523 and a 528. These will be used in a dedicated Atmos system. They are now being used in a dedicated theater. That has been well treated. Over the last 4 years I have owned Parsound Halo a23 and A5 2nd, Krell Chorus a Theta Dreadnaught D and these two. I can say without reservation that the class D amps are different sounding. I will add class D is simply incredible. 

To me the class D amps seem to float the sounds out of my speakers. The music never seems to come from the speakers themselves. But comes from out of thin air. 

I think they are incredible sounding. The Theta Dreadnaught D does use nc1200 modules on all channels. The ATI uses nc 500 and each different channel  figuration has different size power supplies, all linear supplies. 

To the person above with the three channel 523, have you tried this to run your front three channels as I am doing? If not give it a try. It really is an awesome sounding amp. You might be pleased. I know I am
