I’ve always been a tube guy myself. However being in this business, you have to hear different technologies. In the beginning, Class D did not sound all that good as it was a new technology. They really have come a long way but like everything else, there are good and bad examples out there. I am a Class D fan (GaN FET) but I do not limit myself. If I like it, I’ll use it.
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?
