Class D's "place in the hobby" is now at the stage where its starting to take over and dominate the industry due to the fact that more than ever before, that many A/AB amp companies are now producing Class D amps achieving the same results and they had no interest going that direction ten years ago. The Evolution One, the Kaluga, the Bel Canto Black, the Marten M amp, the Cherry amps, are world class performers just to name a few . " it is not bias, just the search for great audio"
Sorry mate, Class D great audio is already here. Its over. There are dozen's of remarkable outstanding reviews on these well designed components all over the world, the evolution of this technology during the past five years has moved so fast which we all hoped for ten years ago, that these components are now truly high end designs. I have never attacked anyone first from my end, never. The attacks always come at me first, and I roll over for no one. And during the past seventeen years as a member, I have never once gone to another thread and attacked the OP if I thought his or her topic was absurd, false, or ridiculous. And once the first attack happens, then others join in on the dog pile. Very immature. Behavior of high school kids.
