Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???

I’m looking for a new amp & want Class D.

I’ve seen various brands mentioned, such as PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrel to name a few, but I’ve not heard any of them.

Which company is producing the best sounding Class D?
Which models should I be looking to demo?


Thanks

Hello rfagon, I do not have general stats on class D reliability.... I can report only my own experience... I have owned Rowland M925 since 2012, and never had a glitch.... My previous class D amp was the Rowland M312, and that one never failed either.


Regards, G.

PS Audio's S300 is a stereo amp and their M700 is a monoblock, so yes, they use different modules.

Peachtree Audio has been producing digital amps for at least 10 years. Many variations available; many include a tube based headphone amplifier. Prices very reasonable. Great deals can be found on ebay.

The D doesn't stand for digital. Can we please stop with the digital amp thing already? That is incorrect. There is no such thing as a digital amplifier.

Class D amps are analog!
