Class D amps that are superior to all or most?

I am sure the Legacy amps are very good. Stock IceEdge modules in a box. However, most people would want the dual mono iV2 amp that retails for $4785 (most don’t need or want a four channel amp like the $8700 iV4 Ultra). You can buy a stereo dual mono amp using mono IceEdge modules from Rouge Audio Design in Italy and have it delivered to your door for $1600.......a savings of $3185!!!!! I can also do mods on any IceEdge amplifier for very little money that improves their sound. Of course, many do no like buying via mail order and also from small companies and also don’t care for modding. I fully understand. The IceEdge modules are seriously reliable.

Yes they are indeed very good, actually excellent in sound quality and much more than simply purchased modules installed in a box based upon my opening the cover and speaking based upon what I see first-hand.

Additionally, when you look at the dynamic range capabilities of stereo source material (which is predominantly recorded at 24 bits) and the emergence of streaming high resolution two channel audio as well as Atmos surround sound, using an amplifier that can keep up with the dynamic range is increasingly beneficial.

While this is certainly true, it has nothing to do with a properly functioning amplifier. Usually it has more to do with making sure that the speakers used with the amp are such that when the dynamic range of the music is expressed, you hear everything without distortion, even if its at lifelike levels.

As an example, in 1959 RCA released the Soria series recordings. Dorle Soria came from Angel to work with RCA and produced upscale recordings and packaging. One such recording is the Verdi Requiem, which is recorded without any compression. The second cut on side one has dynamic range that can bring many systems to their respective knees. But if you have enough power and you have easy to drive speakers its no problem!

Great example on the Soria series,....absolutely spot-on. As to the rest of the reply, you cannot have one without the other, i.e. a speaker that will do it when the amp cannot accomplish the same goal and vice versa leaves you with the system not being able to do it so with all respect, it does have to do with the amplifier’s capabilities.

The i.V Ultra series of amps from Legacy Audio are not stock IcePower modules in a box. That discussion needs to be discarded. I have not shared everything I know about the design. I am not interested in sharing it all, as well.

Further, I presume that Legacy’s use of one channel with a dedicated power supply per channel could outperform all the mods of the EVS amp. Or, vice versa. 

Obviously, no one - including EVS, Legacy, or myself - knows short of an actual comparison.
