I don't know much about class D amps, I did buy a Sonic Impact T-amp from Parts Express once to play with, I returned it because I don't have the speakers for it.
I did manage to hook it up to a pair of BIC Venturi horn speakers, and was floored with the clarity of the amp.
Those speakers had so many problems that I just didn't want to monkey with them, bad x-overs with busted pots,only sometimes could I get them to work right.
So, this leads me to my question.
Whats a high value class D amp with some hp/balls to drive normal speakers?
I'm looking for the Forte 4 of class D's, assuming (class D)is a tripath based/type amp.
Jtwrace, the ClassD amps look very interesting as they utilize some fairly novel technologies from TI. What will you be using for power supply. .. unless I'm wrong, they seem to require an external PS. Guido
Kkm, I did the same thing (audiosource/ebay/tube pre). I had a mint Son of Ampzilla I thought sounded pretty good, but what clear,superior, balanced, muscular sound for $250. I am still amazed. Music, just music. I do believe a Class "D" should be matched with a tube pre.
Yes, I got one of the kits. This one: http://classdaudio.com/index.php/class-d-amplifier-kits/home-kits/600w-class-d-power-amplifier-and-power-supply.html
add a power cord and you're off. The board is already built you just have to attach the toridal.
