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!

George,

It seems no matter how factual I am you complain about me being abusive to you.

You have made dozens of posting on this thread, and ignored the request in the OP and myself and others to start an anti-Class D thread if you are so inclined.

You've also made the same arguments dozens of times.

Would you please be a gentleman and go start your own Class D bashing thread?

Thank you,


Erik

Thank you Erik for starting this thread. Since I am a manufacturer and of Class D at that. Therefore, I am obviously biased. So I think my comments isn’t worth much and rightly so I suppose. Anyway, I won’t get into endless debate on the technical mumbo jumbo, rather to say that class D CAN (and this is the key word) sound extraordinary. Then again, the same can be said for tube, conventional class A and class AB design.

As a young electronic technician, and PCB designer, I was entranced at the idea of ultra-wide bandwidth electronics.

We often made gear for theaters that was flat to 100kHz. Very transparent sounding stuff. Tandberg was one of the brands I remember sounding great at the time, with astonishing slew rates.

However, in modern times, I can’t say it has been the slew rate or bandwidth that has won me over at all. Spectral is one such amp, which I heard, and it was OK, but no, it didn’t stop me from buying anything else. That is, if the ultra-wide bandwidth had benefits, it didn't win me over to it.
Thanks to all of the recent kind words.  As pointed out, I can't believe this thread is really 3 years old. I can't believe we are still reading and dismissing the same old arguments.

I hope to read more about what new products have come out recently worth listening to.
