Class D

Something to keep solidly in mind when reading about how wonderful this or that class D module is that the commentator probably doesn't have even a decent system and his standards are very low. That seems to be the general rule with people praising class D. You'll rarely hear anyone say, for example, they liked this or that module over their old Pass, Mark Levinson, Esoteric, Solution, Gryphon, Boulder, etc, etc. It's also bottom-tier entry level products.

I'm currently evaluating a VTV Purifi, and it's frankly not impressive. I'm not saying horrible, but my Odyssey amps (Stratos, Kismet) are better, and Odyssey is in no way a high-end amp.

Stop baiting George and, George, stop taking the bait.

No bait, just bad info that needs to be corrected.

George is right. He posts a lot of incorrect, unsubstantiated information that he cannot describe or support in his own words. It is a lot of work to keep correcting that.

Isn't Jeff Rowland (hardly a bargain basement brand) still using Pascal modules?

Yes, which are just tweaked Chinese Sanway subwoofer module’s, and Red Dragon use them also at 1/5th the price. 1st pic is the $10k JR Contiuum S2, 2nd pic is the module in the Red Dragon, the rest are $100 Chinese Sanway Audio sub woofer/PA modules
