But laughter aside, I'm getting the itch to try Class D again but don't want to spend a lot.Remember NuForce? They are now NuPrime (have been for a while), and I'm eyeing their IDA-8 integrated amp / DAC ($999 MSRP).

Abe, I recall reading that you have tried a lot of class D amps. Have you heard the Class D Audio models?
I'm interested in their SDS470 with the upgraded power supply.
My beloved Legacy [Coda] amp has had some intermittent transfer hum and one side heat sinks is running hotter than the other. The amp is 19yrs old, and has been back to Coda for caps, twice.
I'd like to use the SDS470, and eventually send the other amp back to Coda for repair and upgrades. When the budget will allow. If the SDS470 sounds as good as the reviews it could be a real find.
I really like the edgy direction case design is going.
Whereas I am still dumbstruck by tube glow and Mcintosh VU meters, I am attracted to the modern austerity and ingenuity of these designs.
I tried to convince myself to pare down to a small, efficient integrated like the NuPrime or JOB and some bookshelf speakers.
I got rid of the Monoblocks and Hartley Concertmasters....so I made some progress.
The Youtube video below comes to mind when I think I've made headway...lol.
Actually, the darn thing has really good midrange articulation. It's only at the top where it falters - like all switchers.
I can get some downright LOUD levels with it!
LOL! Touché.
