Class D Technology


So I get the obvious strengths of Class D. Efficiency, power output & running cool which allows for small form factors. I also understand the weaknesses somewhat. 1. Non-linear & lots of distortion that needs to be cleaned up with an output filter. 
So my question is, if it weren't for efficiency & power, would there be any reason to own a Class D amp? Do they beat Class A in any other categories that count for sound quality?

Is the S500 made by Red Dragon?
It maybe assembled by them, but it sure looks like the modules come from here. As do the Rowland Continum S2

The nuprime should be considered more seriously, is not just one of the best class d, but one of the best under 10.000 usd maybe, here is compared with some big guys like ayre, mola mola, primaluna, Bryston in very high end systems, hope this helps someone like it helps me to make a decision
