Class D is just Dandy!
miner42,     Nice story except for the part about your brother in law dying!     It just illustrates another less discussed benefit of good class D amps; reliability.       Most understand that heat is generally the enemy of electronics and excess... 
Class D = Trash?
Hi atmasphere,     Proprietary power modules and supply?  Wow!  Very cool and very interesting.Good luck,   Tim 
Class D = Trash?
Hi atmasphere,      I'm very interested in checking out your take on the first Atmasphere class D amp.      Too early to share any insider details like modules chosen. type of power supply adopted, any customized components, target price and expec...

georgehifi,     From the comments of your fellow mates on www.stereonet.au,it seems you've been posting about the need for an increase in the switching frequency of class D amps to the 3-5mHz range for years to the point of their apparent constern...

" Yes as I posted here, these eGaN fets are what Technics are using in their new $30k class-d and with it are able to double the frequency of the switching noise."     Yes georgehifi, you were definitely the 1st to post here and link info on the e...

Hi George,    So, you're saying it may be a year or two before you buy your first class D amp?     If you're going to wait until class D is absolutely perfect, the good news is that it'll probably be the last amp you'll ever need to buy.  Good str...

Hi Henry,       You know, if I said "Hi" and used your last name after, I'd be saying:"Hi-Ho".  Mind if I say it twice and add: "it's off to work we go"?      True story from my college days:       I worked at a Chinese restaurant and a new guy wa...

     Class D's current state is very good and its future is looking even better.  I recently read an article about new faster switching MOSFET transistors.         This transistor technology is called Gallium Nitride (GaN) and is poised to uproot ...

Northernfox,      Congrats on your new Bel Canto Ref600M class D mono-blocks!       From the reviews I've been reading, good amp designs based on the newer Hypex NCore 500 module are very close to the good amp designs based on the NCore 1200 modul...

georgehifi,     Here's a link to what I was referring to in my last post about reading of faster switching mosfets:http://audiophilereview.com/cd-dac-digital/why-well-soon-be-living-in-a-class-d-world.html      This transistor technology is calle...

georgehifi,      Yes, Nord does cut costs and prices to customers by selecting op amps for their input boards that they like the sound of rather than the much more expensive method of designing and building their own.        Class D power module m...

Hi Henry,      Thank you for clarifying your findings: "from what I have implemented and heard is that an unregulated analog power supply seem to always sound better than those with SMPS. And this is strictly in the context of class D Icepower."  ... 
Class D = Trash?
Hi Henry,     Thank you for taking the time to respond in such detail to my question and stating that you do think there's a direct relationship between an analog power supply and good bass response in an amp. Given your praises of regulated amp o... 
Class D = Trash?
Hi Henry,     I respect your knowledge and experience as well as your H2O amps.     I realize you utilize large analog power supplies in your Icepower based amps, rather than the more typical switching power supplies, and your amps are known for t... 
Full range or subwoofer with bookshelfs for best bass at low to moderate volume?
Hello bob_reynolds, This 1st link is an interesting and informative interview with Dr.Earl Geddes, although he only addresses multiple sub theory for a short section, on Dagogo’s website: http://www.dagogo.com/View-Article.asp?hArticle=1047 Here’s...
