Time to buy a class D amp?

@niodari

As you can see, more and more people are making class d amplifiers...or about to make class d amplifiers.  Unless you plan to hold on to it forever...or don't care about massive depreciation when you resell, I'd suggest you buy one that is well reviewed (much easier to resell) and which you don't see being offered for resale very often (meaning people tend to like them and hold on to them).

As for a 30 day trial period for a product shipped to Mexico....maybe it won't be possible....meaning it is even more important to buy a product with a good reputation that will be easy to resell if and when the time comes.

Good Luck

Hello niodari,

     I believe most internet direct class D companies ship worldwide without too many exceptions but I'm not certain, you may want to call or email and ask.
     I agree the LSA amp looks very interesting. If it has a switching carrier frequency of about 1.5 MHz, perhaps georgehifi may even be interested.
     I'm currently very pleased with all my the class D amps I use in my system.  I strongly believe they have so many positive attributes it will be hard for them not to be the predominate amp technology in the near future.  
    At their current stage of development, I understand some preferring to use their beloved class A, top of the line class AB or tube amps.  Of course, class D has no current monopoly on high quality performance. 
    However, it's apparent that class D technology performance quality has been improving at a faster pace than the technology the more traditional amps are based on.  I envision this fast paced improvement in the performance quality of class D technology and amps to continue for the foreseeable future.  Eventually, even those afflicted with the worst cases of amp-type bias will relent in favor of improved audio quality.  Perhaps it may result from class D amps incorporating DSP circuitry that is able to mimic the sound qualities of state of the art class A and tube amps at the press of a button.


This should be fun,

No it's only got 500khz similar to everyone else with the same associated phase shift problems, but they advertised it as "very fast 500,000hz switching" just to intimate it's even quicker, "but 500,000hz is 500khz", that was fixed in their ad once pointed out to them.
So you draw your own conclusion to what kind of manufacturer they are for tying one on.

The class D landscape will quite possibly change in the next 12-24 months....  
All these issues of contention may be going bye bye.... (and then we can bitch about something else, as we will do that regardless)
