Merrill Audio VERITAS Amps: Any other experiances?
Hi Al,Thanks for the info. I would love to use the NC1200 modules in my possible amp build (but I know they're only available in finished amps that are beyond my budget) so I'll probably use the NC400 modules or some other class D modules. Or I co... 
450 Pound Monobloc Amplifier
Audiolabyrinth, On an earlier post, you requested a list of class D amps that sound good. I am not, by any measure, an expert on class D amplifiers. I'm just a fellow music/audio lover who is always striving to assemble the best system I can for b... 
Merrill Audio VERITAS Amps: Any other experiances?
Hi Guido, Thanks for the info. I've been reading the forums on Audiocircle and that's where I got the idea to build my own monoblocs. With things happening so quickly with class D, I'm a little concerned that my monoblocs may be obsolete by the ti... 
Merrill Audio VERITAS Amps: Any other experiances?
Hi Guido, I'm just an audiofool, myself. One who, obviously, has too much time on my hands since retiring ( former distribution operations manager). I also am very excited about the potential of the new various class D amplifiers/technologies and ...

03-18-13: Mitch4t."Tim, I love the sound of my Pass amps and I'm in no hurry to change. However, I have no loyalty or sentimental attachment to them. If I hear a set of switching amps that outshine them for less money, I'd change in a heartbeat an... 
450 Pound Monobloc Amplifier
Guido, I just bought a Class D Audio SDS440SC. But I've been thinking of building a pair of monoblocs from the Hypex NC400 modules or even Abletec modules if they're available. 
Merrill Audio VERITAS Amps: Any other experiances?
Very intriging. I started reading this thread to learn more about the Merril Veritas class D monoblocs. However, this thread quickly evolved(devolved?) into a discussion of ownership rights to various class D technologies, patent and trademark own...

"Hey Tim, I think you are right on the money. I believe with a decent amount of money thrown at R&D, the switching amp could be to linear amps what digital cameras did to film cameras."Mitch,Excellent analogy.The R&D funding and progressio...

450 Pound Monobloc Amplifier
I am very interested to see, over the next 2-10 years, how the established big names in high-end audio react to the already very serious threat that class d amplifiers represent. From my perspective, the writing is on the wall as far as the future... 
Found good & affordable amp for Magnepans
Loomisjohnson, Agree with you completely, their website needs some serious help. Nowadays, websites are too important not to get right. It's the public face of your company. If not professionally redone, local colleges might be a good option. 
Found good & affordable amp for Magnepans
Gammajo,I just checked out your system and it looks really nice. It's simple but has excellent, well chosen components. It must be a real treat to listen to music in that beautiful room and setting. It sounds like Rxman (the pharmicist?), you and ...

Shakeydeal, You're probably right, many class D makers do describe their amps as having ss bass with tube midrange and treble. But Tom at CDA knew I had a tube preamp. He described the sound I should expect in combination with my existing componen...
