How do good car amps sound?


Do car amps sound good - liquid and transparent? They are certainly affordable and small enough to fit on a computer desk, so I am thinking of getting one and building a nice computer system for cheap.

Which sounds better - class A/B or class D?

If anyone knows of a good sounding car amp, please enlighten me - I will be most greatful.

There are some outstanding car audio products which do all the same things that audiophile home amps do, you just need to know where to look.

Check out brands like Audison and Sinfoni, both which are heavily biased into Class-A operation.
Naim's system in the Bentley has been very highly rated :)

I use JL Audio XD amps driving the Dynaudio Esotec 242GT (basically the drivers of their Focus 140s) with an Alpine INA W900 head unit. iPod carrying AIFF
