D-SONIC SOA Class-D Core Amps. The best Class-D ?

Owner/Designer Dean Deacon of D-Sonic in Houston in recent months dropped using the B&O ICE amps which he now only uses in the surround channels of his multi-channel home theater amps. He now uses a new Class-D amp in all of his Magnum2 mono and two channel amps which he states is the most technically advanced Class-D amp on the market, called the SOA Class-D core amps. The recent review in 6Moons of his new M2-1500M amp concludes its the closest that Class-D has ever come to tube amps in the upper mid-range and high frequencies.
Anyone bought or heard recently the D-Sonic M2-1500M or the M2-600M? What are your opinions?

This is not true. Only B-Stock close outs and one 3 channel unit use B&O.

Tim,

I have been shipping amplifiers with the new AMS1000-2600 modules. The sonic differences with the previous ALC1000-1300 are very subtle with most source material. They do have a more natural resolution of detail and a more natural impact in the upper bass to lower midrange area. This is where most big dynamics are heard such as percussion, cellos, baritone and bass horns.

A previous post stated that I use B&O in all of my multichannel amplifiers. This has not been true for almost two years now. I use them only in the M2-1500-3 model and am phasing these modules out. I do have a few older B-Stock units also.

Regards,

Dennis
