Has anyone switched from Class AB/A to Class D? Was it better? Was it worse?

I heard a class D amp the other day (Lyngdorf) and it sounded really good. I liked the minimalism of it also. But, I need to own a amp for a couple of months to really know if I like it or not. I don't like room correction ether, so I just liked the sound without that. 

Curious, has anyone ever switched from a class AB or class A amp to a class D amp? If so, did you regret it? Was it a downgrade in sound? Or was it upgrade in sound?

In two weeks I should have a better understanding of GaN Fet amps. 
Will be using Class D Audio’s mono blocks paired with a Benchmark LA4 preamp.

Linear Tube Audio DAC fed by a Shanling ET-3 all into some Spendor D9’s.

My streaming computer is out for upgrades.

All the matters in the end is how the amp sounds in our system.
