Class D is just Dandy!

It’s one of the first, commercial Class-D that came after the original Class-T (Google these also as they only used N channel fets which allowed in some cases a higher switching frequency)

I wonder if this is the reason why I only like Tripath amps under Class D category. Class D amps other than Tripath, give me kind of fatigue after 30 minutes of music. When I put my Tripath amp back, I can listen to my Harbeths for hours.

Really, after having had this same exact discussion for a year or two we need to rehash it a millionth time?

Yes..... but this time it's a lot quieter somehow.

It seems that many folks hear one or two examples of a particular technology and if they like them then they equate that like across that platform. And vice versa some do not like the one or two examples of a tech they've heard and so they think that all examples in that tech sound bad.

Erik, you and I, Guido, and Ralph (and I'm many others) know that Class D can sound good. Obviously Ralph thinks so since he is working on bringing a Class D amp to the market. We also know Ralph made his mark in tubes and so working to offer a Class D amp he is basically stating that Class D can sound good, maybe not like tubes, but good in an of itself.

For those who've heard Class D and don't like it, I challenge you to go listen to Mbl or TAD. They both have Class D offerings that are very very good. You can't judge a book by its cover or its categorization. Don't listen for the Class, just listen for music. You may be very surprised and preconceptions may just be shattered.
