georgelofi you are correct about switching frequency being teh key to even better Class D amps in the future.Have you listened to any good quality class D amps or are you judging solely on technical interpretation?Fact is the good ones sound very ... 
Enough SET Power for Rock and Roll
Rock music is loud and that's the way most fans want to hear it.  If you are an audiophile you want it loud with all the other good stuff audiophiles listen for.   The opinions appear to be mixed whether a SET amp can truly do rock well.   I think...

Listen and decide. My Class D amps are the best I’ve ever had by far. They sound great always with most any speaker and that’s all that matters. Gotta match to right speakers for absolute best results though just like any amp.Plus they are most ef...

OP if vendor says amps are working as they should, might be worth while to take up the noise issue with them specifically and ask for advice on how to best diagnose and address it. They should know their products best.If they say its operating nor...

Enjoying Some Old Friends Regularly Once more
So now I have my Triangle Titus speakers, the smallest I own, sitting idlle rather than the Ls.    Still targeting these for use in a tube amp system someday.   Titus are very high quality and well reviewed speakers as well but on the smaller side... 
Enjoying Some Old Friends Regularly Once more
Had another lengthy listening session with the trusty old Ls yesterday and enjoyed it thoroughly.Corner placement can be a wonderful thing. I’d encourage anyone with the option and need to consider giving it a try.They also by far have the best am... 
Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
Actually RTR should be capable of setting the reference standard for sound. Then you can try to approach it with vinyl but will probably never happen. Hi res digital might have a chance. 
Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
All I can say is its much higher if you have an interest in turntables themselves as much as listening to music. Many factors go into the sound and the options are endless. You can take it as far as you want for as long as you want. It takes time ...

Can you relate how you know the problem is the amp?  Have you tried swapping in a  different amp in to determine that the problem was in fact the amp?
