New Class D amplifiers
Hello. I'm very interested in getting your opinion on the newer Class D amplifiers. There has been a couple of very positive reviews (by Guttenberg) of the Bel Canto C6i and NAD M23. These, and perhaps some others are offering new technology that significantly lower the class D noise level and other drawbacks.
I currently use a Class A amp, Pass Labs INT-25 (with Dynaudio Heritage Special speakers) which has a wonderful sound. But I am transitioning to another location, and due to using Roon primarily I find that this system stays on most of the day. Due to heat and power usage of Class A amplifiers, I'm interested in translating to Class D if I find something comparable.
All I can say is I remember when a certain member of this forum would simply not leave anyone who liked Class D alone, and insisted that Class D would finally get listenable with GaN. Hahahahaha. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for technological improvements, but I see more clear innovation and utility in Atmasphere's amps than in doing the same old thing with GaN (apologies to you Technics fans!) |
