High end Class D amps?


Just an observation and a question. Are there 'high end' Class D amps out there that are just as good as Class A, A/B amps? I realize that's a sensitive question to some and I mean no disrespect---but whenever I see others' hifi systems on social media, all of the amps are A or A/B. There's always Pass, McIntosh, Moon, Luxman, Accuphase, etc. Where are the Class Ds? For folks out there that want more power for less efficient speakers and can't afford the uber expensive Class As, A/Bs, what is there to choose from that's close to those brands? Thanks

I'll wait for Atmasphere's amps.
If he can do for Class D, what he does for tubes, then I know it will be so good that I don't have to bother looking at other amps.

As I said your Lux is more than fine for that speakers load and probally better than any Class-D.

But if your insistent on getting a Class-D, I’d wait for mid February to see what this new all out Integrated is all about, and if it follows the design set by their Flagship poweramp, it will be something special.

I'm an early adopter of Boenicke's new P1 class D amp.  It's basic, but it does it very well.  Pair w/Boenicke W8SE+ speakers on a swing base; you'll be blown away.

@greenwichct How does it compare to linear amps? What's your frame of reference?
So basically, it's a fire hazard?
