Class D for a Tube Lover

I have 20 pairs.

Do you listen to music or just hardware?

So an amp that’s able to drive a good variety of speakers is a must.

As with tube amps, the loudspeaker completes the drive circuit in Class D albeit with different characteristics and by different electrical properties.

Hence one loudspeaker may be chalk while another equally fine product may be cheese with the same amplifier. The exact opposite condition can arise with a different amplifier and the same loudspeakers.

One more PS Audio recommendation. I picked up an older Trio C-100 Integrated amp a few years ago, and recently tried it in my system. It’s actually a really nice sounding amp, and I paid $550 for it (in mint condition). EDIT - by "nice" I mean competitive as a high-end amp. There are a couple companies that offer mods/upgrades that (supposedly) sound even better, too. Underwood HiFi still provides it’s upgrade services on the amp, actually. It is a pretty rare find, but if you can snag one it would be a relatively cheap foray into class D territory.

Thanks for the suggestions.  I didn't realize PS Audio's catalogue had Class D amps.  I guess I never really thought about it until the heat the Cary's created in my music room even this early in springtime where it's still a bit cool to chilly outside got me a bit concerned.  I've had them for probably 4-6 months so not during the summertime.  They will not be in use in another few months.

I've got more amps but they're either tubed or Class A, for the most part.  I do have one amp that I haven't used in a long time that might not generate heat but I honestly do not recall.  May try that one out first after the temperature in the PNW rises.  BTW, it's a Marsh A400S.  And I've got the matching preamp P2000T so that just might be the ticket.  The other preamps I have are both tubes (though small tubes so not too much heat generated).

I realize component matching can be an issue but I'm of the mind that any  component with reasonable quality will play fairly nicely with other components.  I don't think I've ever inserted a piece of gear into my system which caused it to totally suck.  Different?  Sure.  But suck?  Not really.  Maybe I've been lucky or I'm not a critical listener.

I think I listen to music as opposed to hardware.  But I do have a lot of gear.  I just like the stuff. 

Do any of us "need" more than one of anything, really?  

SPEC but they are not cheap.

I own an Audio Research DSI200 class D integrated amp, circa 2010. Beautiful tube-like sound. You can find them used for $2.5k-ish.
Real Audio Research sound. Runs super cool. 200watts to 8 ohm. It’s the only solid state integrated amp ARC ever made, just happens to be class D.

ARC developed all of the class D circuits themselves. Didn’t use third party modules.
I’ll never sell mine even when I eventually upgrade. Paired with Spendor D series it’s glorious
