Tvad, my opinion is shaped by the listening of digital filtered players at my location. Non believers have left believing. This is my system I am writing about. I have witnessed the same results with excellent SET systems. 
"D" amps, general discussion who's 1 and why?
Ghostrider, I do not mean to have my ribbons held up as a measure for the signal size. I just noted that it carries all frequencies with ease. The music signal is intensely complex. Timbre, dynamics, and musicality are a sum of an unimaginably com...

Dcstep, How do you explain why neither the varnished Speltz Anti-Cable and my own virtually naked ribbon SCs have no hash issues? And why did the more lightly insulated Jenna sound less distorted than the Cardas? Henry's amps are housed in a thick...

Jswarncke, I auditioned Cardas Golden Reference, and Jenna Labs over the same long weekend. At the time I was using Speltz Anti-Cable. The Cardas was the worst sounding of the two visitors. The Jenna less so. They both exhibit a great deal of hiss...

Call it a highly confident opinion if that is your preference.

Ghostrider45, I use the Quantum theory because it fits. My speaker cables are extremely thin ribbons. The music signal in all it's fruition slips through without inhibition. We are talking about the very small. I can use words like, every, always,...

Jswarncke, the answer is yes, and no. It isn't that class D exaggerates the effects of distortion graters, they unveil the sonic damage that has always been there. You should hear the cable talk on my system. That is another class D revelation.

Dcstep, as you know, the Lambda is a transport. Mine has a new wheel. Also, it has been given a big lift in sound by Henry Ho. My DAC is an Audio Note 2.1. This too has been highly advanced with updated electronics. The DAC has 4 NOS tubes. For tu...

Gryphonaudio, If you were a local, I would challenge you to back up your talk with an audition. I will swear on a stack of holy books my no filter DAC will out shine the Mikado in every category on my system.

I can make my class D system sound sublime or miserable depending on what I hook my amps up with. I know, because I have done it time after time. Every time someone brings over a glorified digital filtered digital source, the sound closes up, harm...

Tweak1 hit on the head. Anyone venturing into class D have to rethink their system strategy. Class D transmits everything in your chain including gremlins emitted by your cords you don't even know are there before. Same goes for digital sources. I... 
ICE amps need cooling?
Henry Ho has had ASP amps out for years now. They are a cheap offering for people who want the class D sound but can't afford the flagship. His Fire preamp, a HOT class A design, is pristinely clear and dynamic. I know if Henry thought using an AS... 
ICE amps need cooling?
Kijanki, thanks for the calm and reasoned response. As much as we want to believe the very talented engineers at B&O made the digital power supply to perfect the sound of their modules, the fact is they did it to shrink the package. There is n... 
ICE amps need cooling?
Kijanki, B&O would find your notion the modulation process is the same as the switching power supply unit insulting, or more likely, hilarious. Henry Ho, an advanced electronics engineer is quite capable of creating a power supply that has no ... 
ICE amps need cooling?
Here's one. The digital power supply is noisy. My amp builder makes amps of both modules. The newest module has cut distortion and noise by half. They gave this module a different designation. There is a built in noise and distortion filter in the...
