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?

D-Sonic Dennis,

Any impressions on the performance of your 600M vs 600M-A mono-blocks you'd care to share? Are there any significant differences at all?

Thanks,
Tim
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
Hi Dennis, as you can see, there is a little bit of uncertainty in the common lore about the specs of D-Sonic's fine amps. If you can add a little bit of technical information on your site for each model... such as available module options, the confusion will vanish quickly.

Hi Dennis,

How would you compare the sound of the M-pro2 vs the S-pro2? 6moons compared the two in the Gado DIA 400 and 250 amps and liked the S-pro2 better. S-pro2 seems to be newer but the M-pro2 should be a step up, which is confusing.

Thanks!
