Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
I have a question for you Roger:What are your thoughts on Class D amps? I have listened to quite a few and always came away unimpressed with my ears aching. I am a Mac guy at heart marrying a Mac solid state amp with a Mac tube preamp. Perhaps I l...
