Class D is just Dandy!

Sounds like you guys are getting a little too technical for me,but keep the thread going because it's so nice to read positives about class d and not the usual negatives.

All I can say about class d is it has come a long way but will probably continue improving as time goes by.I started into class d about 4 yrs ago with a set of diy nc400 and I own a set of bel canto ref600m and I have a new red dragon s500.I have been in this hobby for 30 yrs and have been blessed with all kinds of nice gear.I practically gave away a pass labs xa30.8 and first watt j2 on the used market just because they did'nt better any of my class d amps.

At the end of the day it is still all about the music and the amount of emotion and involvement that I can receive,and class d does it for me,not looking for class a or tube amps anymore.

and not the usual negatives.

Some love them some don’t, and on a forum this is where it should be discussed, not limited to just the "pro sector" usually from owners, but the negatives also from those who’ve listened/owned but don’t like their sound, and then technically the reasons why this maybe the case.

and class d does it for me,not looking for class a or tube amps anymore.

That’s good, if you believe you’ve reach your holly grail with the Class-D.
I’m still waiting for it to mature with future advances in technology that are coming, as Technics have started in very expensive limited supply. Then we’ll all be happy Class-D campers.

I see it a bit like the first hard sounding brickwall filtered CD players, which I also didn’t like, took a while but the newer technology especially in filtering and I/V conversion now makes great music, even with using those same old d/a chips, of that era with pcm redbook replay.

@georgehifi whatever dude, you're just a hater, get out of here.

Just kidding. You've proven yourself to be a topnotch human in this thread. We know you're not enamored with current class d and you've very respectfully and clearly outlined why based on theory and experience. So I can respect that and do. 

What I find annoying are the people bashing class d (or anything, really) without having given it a listen. Don't speak on what you don't know. If only Mr President would follow that advice..

George,
I have looked at at the technics,very interesting,now we need other designers too go in that direction and evolve.

I had one of the very first technics CD players in 1983,touting perfect sound forever,I now have a ps direct stream.Look how far digital has evolved but it has taken a long time.With me it's not about the money,I can buy just about anything I want,If I like it I will Buy it.A good example of me is auditioning a set of demo magico q3 at a dealer with money in hand but I really wasn't that impressed because they really didn't better what I currently own in speakers.

Basically there is a lot of hype in this industry and I really don't have time for it,I just want too everyday enjoy the music.
My most recent purchase is a set of tekton double impacts,I get them next wed.I read about them and then I called Eric and asked a few questions that he quickly answered which sold me instantly to purchase.I respect his talents as a speaker designer and I will see if I like them or not.I know he makes some very bold statements about his speakers and has even gotten a patient for his design.

Erik,
Class d amplification is just "DANDY".
Thank You for starting this thread.
