New Class D amplifiers
Hello. I'm very interested in getting your opinion on the newer Class D amplifiers. There has been a couple of very positive reviews (by Guttenberg) of the Bel Canto C6i and NAD M23. These, and perhaps some others are offering new technology that significantly lower the class D noise level and other drawbacks.
I currently use a Class A amp, Pass Labs INT-25 (with Dynaudio Heritage Special speakers) which has a wonderful sound. But I am transitioning to another location, and due to using Roon primarily I find that this system stays on most of the day. Due to heat and power usage of Class A amplifiers, I'm interested in translating to Class D if I find something comparable.
I have a Legacy Audio system. 7.4 The last component added was my Legacy Class D V:2 and V:5 Amps. Previously I had ATI Signature series 6007 Top of the line. ATI was noisy, hot and solid as a rock. These Legacys are dead quiet, cool as a cucumber and just as solid. If there is warmth difference, I can’t tell it. I love them. Best move I’ve made. |
krell_fan1Yes my Lyngdorf MP-40 is probably my last processor. I think it does about as good as I'm goona get. Love it's over the top adjustability and more importantly its sound. Just killer ... |
