Why no Class D integrated love? (from manufacturers)

kosst amojan:"You do realize you're using those amps at their highest possible distortion power level, right?"

Wrong, good class D amps don't behave like traditional linear amps.  They have extremely low distortion (like .005%) over the entire power curve up to max output without clipping.  Oh, they have very high S/N ratios and exceptional dynamics due to all the extra power, too.  You're really missing out on something spectacular.


mapman,

 Amen, brother!  Class D is the cat's pajamas.

I use 1,200 watt class D mono blocks on my 86dB Magnepans and beautiful totally engaging music with an effortless quality is a very good description of what I'm hearing, too.  Plus the dead-quiet background and powerful dynamics.

Enjoy,

In my system that I listen to every day, I'm using the Bel Canto Black EX integrated amp. Sure, it's a  pricey piece, but unbelievable and certainly doesn't leave me wanting for any other amplification topology such as Class A or Class AB.

I heard the Bel Canto black dac and amp today briefly with t+a speakers and was surprised at the warmth and natural tone. Very nice musical gear.

Muti-inputs corrupt the signal to a degree and this is more noticeable with Class D because of it's purist design.

Please explain this in a more technical way why it is more susceptible to solid state Class-D than solid state linear?
