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?

@texasblues1959 I didn’t. Some of my comments were removed without explanation. I didn’t say anything untoward too

I have a Nord Purifi Class D and it is good as the best SS amp I have had. I also Have a VTL tube amp which does sound slightly more refined than the Nord.

I can tell you a newfound product I used to sell which sounds incredibly good 

as long as your room is not too massive and Loudspeakrrs around 88 db on up 

Pathos Audio  their integrated amps especially their products with the Inpol technologies  where the Tubes act as amplifiers and buffers to the amplifiers 

outputs simply just 🎶 musical in pure class A -0 feedback 

class A with a additional stage to bring more realism ,sort of like 

a SET  amp and class A combined ,well worth checking out ,you will be seeing more reviews coming out ,on YouTube some good information though.

I just bought their 45wpc into 8 ohms over 25% more into 4 ohms the Impol 2 - MK2  weighs around 86 lbs and Italian styling Very Nice . I will be running  it in .

I have heard these several times in. The last few years  the mk2  even better .
