IMHO: At a price point, maybe. If you need a lot of power at a good price, Class D does that. Class A does not. I think matching the amp to the speakers matters more than what you listen to. I had a Class A ARC Classic 60 that was glorious but I missed the oomph of my Moscode 600 Maxi, and I've finally decided (after 50+ years of this hobby) that having enough power matters a whole lot. (At the moment, I have an ARC VT100 driving Vandersteen 5s, but they have built-in powered subwoofers.)
And I think all amplifiers sound the same... until you connect them to speakers.
Good luck, and have fun!
