What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load


Just asking.

I see specs into 4 ohms but nothing into difficult speaker loads (like Thiel CS5's).

Thanks for listening,

Here is the comments from a manufacturer of these Purifi’s Class-D amps when I queried him on the unnecessary low 2.2k input impedance. I think it could be because of the use of bjt input stage instead of fet, I’ve yet to suss that one out.
Yes you are absolutely correct that you can use a high output DAC directly into this module. "That would be the ultimate solution"
And I am considering a buffer bypass mode. However most power amps will have gain in the region of 26dB to account for sources down to 2 Vrms. A typical DAC straight in is a good solution with digital volume
I explained why already. This is a common issue and why you see many Class D amps with some sort of buffer input. Many opamps can drive lower impedances like 600 ohms no worries and since so much feedback (+30dB) is being used, the assumption is that the distortion added by the feedback on the opamp will be quite minimal. But there are some class D amps where the designer opted to simply have a low impedance input for the very simple reason of having less circuitry- a purist approach. But you have to have a source that can drive it. Its nothing to do with FETs or BJTs.

Whatever Ralph.
Seems like this could be the module your using, as you've turned up the force shields a notch higher on this one, if so just go with the buffer by-pass switch. 
I've mentioned before, we're not using anyone's modules.

It seems that what you aren't getting is that comparitors (a kind of chip or circuit used in many class D amps) can be unstable if used with high input impedances. To prevent oscillation, lower impedances are used at their inputs.
Holy crap - 49 amps. Didn't know this one existed

Here's Apollon's version:  https://www.apollonaudio.com/hypex-nc2k-monoblock-amplifier-apollon-audio-nc2kslm/

Yes, 2,000W in 2 ohms. Tell that to some who believe that say a 100W/200W/400W in 8/4/2 ohms amplifier would be more suited to drive 2 ohms speakers just because they double power as impedance halves...

Sorry but what you get is a good PA amp.
Hypex suck in, they purposely put things backwards to confuse at glance. Look again, and that’s peak watts and amps, also the wattage go backwards as the impedance goes down, it gets severly current starved.

Nowhere in this universe can this thing come close to doubling into 2ohms The NC400 of theirs is a far better module as far as current delivery into low impedances it actually goes up in watts instead of down. Data sheet download here
