Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???

Arctikdeth, Perhaps you should audition some other D amps before deciding its lacking.  Have you listened to the Anthem M1's?  

As WSHS31a stated, pros seem to have a wide range of experience in this equipment.

My brother is a long time Audio/Video engineer/producer with a lot of experience with home audio gear.  I had not seen him in several years and he came for a visit last summer.  He wanted to hear my M1's fed into my Bryston Signature Model T mains with three subs place around the room in a 270 degree layout. (subs are Axiom/Bryston).   I have around 6000 watts in total here which includes the 4000 watts at 4 ohms (dedicated dual 240V/15 amp feeds) into the main speakers.  My brother was blown away; he used to work with many national bands who would tour at his college and he said my living room which is around 10,000 cu. feet in size sounded better than the live venues he worked.   He loved the Class D M1's.
I am going with his opinion and experience :)

One thing I should point out: I have no explanation but my Class Damps sound pretty mediocre unless warmed up for about 72 hours. 

If you are auditioning amps cold, or recently moved, and you don't like the sound, that could very well be why.


Do use your own ears.  Don't think that Class D means zero warmup time.

byington711,

     If you're still following this thread I have a question:
    From your 1/4/19 post on this thread, I'm not sure if you own the stereo PS Audio BHK 250 or the mono block 300 amps in your system.   
     Regardless, it's my understanding that the PS Audio BHK 250 stereo and 300 monos are class AB amps, not class D amps. 
      Therefore, neither have the usual class D benefits of compact size, low weight, low operating temperature and low electricity consumption,  Both of these amps are quite large (at least 17.1"W x 8.7"H x 14"D), quite heavy (83-100lbs), have high operating temperatures  and consume considerable electricity (at least 175w @ idle and 850/1.600w @ full power at 8/4 ohms). 
     By listing and suggesting these amps on a thread titled :Which class D amp?....", my concern is that some might mistakenly believe that the PS Audio BHK amps actually are class D.
      Can you please clarify and definitively confirm the PS Audio BHK areps are both class AB?

Thanks,
   Tim

I installed new 500w p/s modules in my NuForce, then sent them to Bob Smith @TDSS for the rest of the goods, amp searching is over.

Tube Dac and Preamp in front of these, mandatory in my book and ears.

Other amps I’d ever consider would be NuPrime Evo-1 or Rowlands.
