Classdaudio vs Channel Islands amps

Audiozen,
It doesn't bother me too much that the Abletec amps are made in China since D-Sonic assembles the amps in the U.S. Hopefully quality control isn't an issue.

Which D-Sonic amps are Abletec and which are Pascal? I'm interested in the M3-800S. What are the differences between the two? You seem to know a lot about class D amps.

I'm still very tempted to purchase a Class D Audio amp. I wish I can compare these amps side by side. Unless I hear a significant difference, it wouldn't be worth it for me to purchase the D-Sonic at double the price of Class D Audio.

Izora..Dennis will not answer questions regarding which amps he uses in his models. I have spent well over two hours of phone conversations with Dennis during the past eight months. I find it very hard to believe they are assembled in the U.S. The amps are OEM products and I suspect they are unpackaged from large shipping cartons off pallet boards from China and are re-packaged into single carton's in Texas. You will not find in print on the back of any D-Sonic amp "Made in the USA". Regarding Pascal of Denmark that has been in business since 2006. They also have a new Class D technology called UMAC Class D that is a patented design. The technical engineer that designs the Pascal amps is Jesper Hansen. Currently, Bruno Putzeys with Ncore, Patrik Bostrom with Abletec, anf Jensen Hansen with Pascal have all designed new Class D technologies that puts these guys out front as the current leaders of the newest Class D technologies on the market.

Audiozen,
I don't understand why Dennis refuses to answer questions about the products he sells. Consumers have a right to know what they're buying. It's not an unreasonable request, but his refusal bothers me. It makes me not want to buy his products because it feels like he's hiding something. Perhaps he doesn't want to give away his technology... I don't know.

As for made in USA, Dennis told me himself that the amps are made in Texas. I hope he wasn't making it up... who knows? There are too many uncertainties with this company and amps. I think I'll just stick to Class D Audio for now.

The amps are not made in Texas. D-Sonic gives the impression that the amps are in house designs which is why he won't answer questions since D-Sonic wants to avoid that the amps are manufactured by Pascal and Abletec. Rich with the Abletec office in New Jersey told me five months ago that Dennis buys Abletec amps for D-Sonic.

Oh good grief. I wish he would have just been honest about it. I don't appreciate the fact that he blatantly lied to me.
