Class D is just Dandy!

I thought it was time we had a pro- Class D thread. There's plenty of threads about comparisons, or detractors of Class D.

That's fine, you don't have to like Class D amps, and if you don't please go participate on one of those threads.

For those of us who are very happy and excited about having musical, capable amps that we can afford to keep on 24/7 and don't require large spaces to put them in, this thread is for you.

Please share your experiences with class D amps!

Have any of you guys who claim class D is just fine manage to get musical, non-fatiguing sound and soundstage depth?

Offcourse it's system dependent.

I strongly wncourage you to read this threa. At least skim it. It is filled with glowing recommendations for Class D. 

You can disagree, but there are other threads for trashing class d and I would appreciate it if any detractors took their coments there.

Best,

madavid0, the only time that I do not hear mesmerizing music with resolution, staging, imaging, macro and micro dynamics, authority, and amazing listenability with zero fatigue is when my class D Rowland M925 mono amps and the rest of my system are... Turned off.


On the other hand, I believe you have heard these very same type of comments from me and many other music lover on this and other similar audio watering holes before.... And they ain't changing.


This does not imply that my amps, being class D are inherently superior to yoursma.... Just that I love the kind of emotional music that my amps express to me, for my musical taste, with my other components, in my own home, potentially 24/7/52.


Can my musical experience be enhanced further... Sure thing. Next Thursday I will be taking delivery of a Rowland PSU (Power Storage Unit)... An external power supply based on supercapacitor technology that I will apply to my Rowland Aeris DAC. I am excited about third party reports about it this far, and am anxious to try it on my own system.... But, my class D M925 mono amps are not going anywhere *Grins!*
