With the right tools and parts why would Class D be any harder to fix than any other amplifier. It is rare for the amplifiers to fail. It is more likely the power supply fails.
Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused
17 of 23 speakers in my studio and home theater systems are internally powered. My studio system is all Genelec and sounds very accurate. I know the best new concert and studio speakers are internally powered there are great technical reasons to design a speaker and an amp synergistically, this concept is much more important to sound quality than the vibration systems we often buy. How can an audiophile justify a vibration system of any sort with this in mind.

@donavabdear do you have a room response comparison for your two systems? I would not be surprised if the difference is more frequency response than anything. |
Also I have what should be a very good headphone setup, Focal Stellia and a Naim amp designed for headphones. the headphones and amp were about $8k The headphones sound ok they have never really thrilled me. I thought having expensive headphones and a dedicated class A amp would change my life. It's good but nope. |
@thespeakerdude : what are YOUR speaker(s)? Cin. Thanks |
OP, I also have a good headphone system. While I occasionally use my Focal Utopias, which sound amazing, I normally use my Sennheiser HD800’s. My system is amazing and incredibly musical and natural… the amp is a Woo 300B (my systems under my ID). It is so good it caused me to completely redo my main system with all tubed components.
