Class D is just Dandy!


I thought it was time we had a pro- Class D thread. There's plenty of threads about comparisons, or detractors of Class D.

That's fine, you don't have to like Class D amps, and if you don't please go participate on one of those threads.

For those of us who are very happy and excited about having musical, capable amps that we can afford to keep on 24/7 and don't require large spaces to put them in, this thread is for you.

Please share your experiences with class D amps!

Can anybody list very affordable great sounding Class D amps - say below $2,000 for a stereo pair, and better or comparable SQ to a Sunfire amp?
Check out the Auralic Merak mono block Class A/D amplifiers that put out 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms.  Google the reviews.  These sell for $5000 for the pair new.  These are the best  sounding Class D amps I have heard, and can be had for under $3000.00 used.  Often for less than that.

I'm reluctantly selling my Meraks so I can raise cash to get new speakers.

These Auralic Merak, (linear power supply and Hypex D-amp modules), you only just got them 1 month ago??
Going back to the Parasound A23 that you have?

Yes... the SDS-470C by "ClassDAudio" is superb in all respects, and competes with the Parasound JC-1's, A-21, etc. for about $700.  

I've got them all... as well as... the Atma-Sphere M60's... and... it competes well with all of these.

I shouldn't have bought them since my main goal was to upgrade the speakers.  I have too much equipment right now and need to Get rid of some excess stuff.  I really like the Meraks and will have to determine what stays and what goes.
