Class D sounds dry and lifeless... thats all, carry on

2:31amWhy do some audiophiles treat class D like it’s some kind of venereal disease

Some audiophiles are a pretty opinionated bunch I find. They like what they like and that’s the end of it. If they don’t like it it’s trash. Others are less so and recognize the advantages and disadvantages of different product designs and understand how each is unique, even those they choose not to live with.

Exactly.

Don't just toss a bomb out there OP - labeling a whole class of amps as "dry and lifeless" is not based in any reality. There are good sounding Class D amps, I have one. The TAD M2500. 
Class d has been sold by the magazines as the next great thing in audio but all i hear is a next great blunder in audio history it is a way to make an amp cheap and quick and sounds ok rather than spend the time effort and money to make a good amplifier.
