CLASS D


Hi. Has there been favorable review on any LOW powered,(Klipsch friendly) Class D amps? Any recommendation? I’ve had a Cary at 125 WPC which to me sounded dry with prominent bass, but nothing with AB smoothness or Class A midrange, that would work on Heritage Cornwall?

If it’s a Box Woofer Klipsch. You NEED JUICE to move that Woofer.

+1 @rajugsw - although the horn’s tweeter and midrange can easily handle flea watt amplification, the less than efficient (difficult impedance curves) woofers are tougher to control without adequate power

For “warm” non- tube amplification, maybe a GanFET like AGD and Atma-Sphere or a sliding bias amp like Krell. 

Of course @kennyc . I’ve put Orchard Audio Ultra’s on the Woofers of my Cornwall IV’s and a Black Ice F100 with 6550 Tubes and even the big KT170’s. Excellent results. You get the fast articulate Bass of Class D while getting that "warm & gooey" mids and high’s that horns with Tubes are known for.
