Purifi Class D: Junk?


So, from the previous thread about high-end class D the Purifi module was brought up. I decided to get a cheap example from VTV, a simple stereo unit with a single Purifi module and matching Hypex SMPS. Standard input buffer. I got it in yesterday. First impression wasn't what I was expecting: weak, congested dynamics is what stood out to me. I expected greater expression through my ProAc D30Rs. The other problems such as poor soundstage, thin / boring character, etc, I marked up to needing burn-in before evaluating. So it's been 24 hours, I would still expect to get at least the high control / damping of high end class D and dynamic power, but it's just not present.

Could it be an impedance mismatch? Other manufacturers selling the Purifi with their custom input buffers are reporting 47k Ohms. VTV doesn't say in the manual or on the site. I checked the Purifi data sheet which reports...2.2k Ohms on SE???? That can't be right?? That's absurdly low! Am I reading the right spec? My preamp has an output impedance of 230 Ohms. Can someone confirm that the stock Purifi has this ultra-low input impedance?

Just as a bit of info.  Klaus builds his amps at 22 kohm impedence.
Not 47.
Since you went to great lengths in your other thread to dismiss ALL Class D amps as junk, why do you keep kicking yourself in the nuts by continually testing these devices?  
Because I’m not a cultist who’s made up my mind forever. It’s not a religion to me. If someone with experiences I don’t have relates those experiences the only way I’ll know for sure is to try it myself. It IS true that some high-end manufacturers are making class D amps, so MAYBE there’s something to them afterall. Maybe all my experiences up until now didn’t cover what class D is capable of. That’s why I’m doing this.

Now, are YOU willing to admit that, perhaps, class D is inherently flawed and that is the reason why you’re not motivated to listen to your class D system? Would you be willing to try a good linear amp to find out?
I don't have a Class D system so I would not dismiss them out of hand. I left the high end 25 years ago, Meitner, Audible Illusions 3A etc.because none of it sounded close to the Symphonic band I played in for five years.

Now, I listen to music, not equipment.
