Replacing Emotiva XPA-2 & XPA-5 power amps in HT system with class D

Uberwaltz, I must have missed your post in which you mention purchasing the Nuforce.  It sounds like quite an upgrade.  I experienced a similar improvement over my Emotiva XPA amp a few years ago.  I too have a separate 2 channel set up and found that Parasound Halo Series is superior from top to bottom frequencies, and looks a lot nicer to boot.

I didn't have weight considerations, but reading yours and other impressions on class D, I have to admit in being more open to checking it out.  I've been reluctant towards class D.

Just watched out first full movie with the Nuforce tonight, Smokin Aces 2, which has one heck of a lot of gunshot and explosive special effects and VERY IMPRESSED.
To say the Nuforce is ONLY rated at 150w per channel I felt the sheer force of the movie was above par to the Emotiva experience.
Dont get me wrong the Emotivas are great bang for the buck but I am now convinced that class d MAY be worth consideration in the 2 channel world as well.

uberwaltz,

     I'm glad you're enjoying the AVP-18 and MCA-20.  They both look just like they run,VERY COOL  I don't think you'd hear a big difference between Nuforce and D-Sonic, both seem to have low noise floors, low distortion, neutral and detailed characters with very good power and dynamics.
      I understand you got a good deal on both so that just makes it sweeter.  I don't know if you keep your audio amps on 24/7 as I do but,, regardless, you should see a significant reduction in your electric bill as a further advantage of switching from class A/B to class D amplification.

Congrats,
  Tim.
