Class "D" amp? I do not have a clue. Do you?


I have been a serious audiophile for 30 years and class "D" audio is new to me. Most important, what do they sound like?

DC offset can harm your tweeter, depending on the tweeter design and degree of DC Offset

DC offset present in class D amplifiers and all other amplifiers which do not use output capacitors e.g. Plinius.

Before you purchase your amplifier check the specs. Spectron' specs is 10 mV but as a rule its 3 - 4 mV and its all harmless e.g. drives very well Vandersteen speakers.

When discussing different class D amplifiers, my suggestion is to pay more attention to the power supplies which drive it. There are a number of factors influencing class D amp sound We have posted a paper on our web site which hopefully provides some light:
