Once again, if I understand Class 'D' you will be put at the table of the designer's likes and dislikes with nothing to say for yourself. In other words, they are the ones that choose what and where in the audio spectrum things will get the emphasis with little ability of the end user to override THEIR likes and dislikes. This is exactly why I prefer pre-Amps and Receivers that let you bypass any tone control circuitry if you so choose. I want to hear how a particular song was meant to would like by the engineers and producers rather than some third party that has their own agenda in mind.
Class D Amplification Announcement
After 60 some odd years of disappointment, Class D has finally arrived. As per The Absolute Sound’s Jonathan Valin, the Borrenson-designed Aavik P-580 amp “is the first Class D amplifier I can recommend without the usual reservations. …the P-580 does not have the usual digital-like upper-mid/lower-treble glare or brick wall-like top-octave cut-off that Class D amps of the past have evinced.”
Past designers of Class D and audiophiles, rejoice; Michael Borrenson has finally realized the potential of Class D.
