Future of analog controlled class 'D' amps?

Ndeslions, I'll second that. there are other giant slayers out there too, like CIAdio, and the amps I am using, the H2O Signature monos.

UcD = Universal class D. which is a technology, not a company, invented by the man who wrote the article I linked to.

I think Bruno was much too pesimistic, a couple of companies have purchased a license to this technology and I'm sure there will be more to follow.

Some will want to make their own audiophile grade class D amps from scratch. Can you imagine ATC deigning to license technology from another company?

BASH is a digital switching class D based architecture developed by a company named Indigo. Several manufacturers have licensed it. Polk is now using it in their LSI subwoofer.

Ndeslions, I'd like to agree with you because I could stop with the foolishness I'm in up to my neck with already. But the amps you mentioned don't challenge even what *I'm* doing so imagine what would happen if someone came along that could get it right :)

Seriously, they do have a ways to go yet.

I have to whole heartily agree with Ndeslions - the Ref. 9.02 are also the finest amps that I too have owned (& heard) and the list is l-o-n-g. I still just shake my head in disbelief at how good they sound for their price.
