For turning tail and never following through with the full blown review you promised many moons ago, after pinning the prestigious "Writer's Choice" award back in 2010, on the Channel Islands D-200 MKII's. Please turn in your audiophile badge, and any other industry related bling-bling you have lying around, to the front desk, and don't let the door hit you on the way out! :-)

"Channel Islands Audio D-200 Mk II

If you thought that the original D-200 was a great product, and it was, wait till you get an ear-full of the Mk II version. When asked how he had accomplished such sweeping improvements over the original, award winning, Class D, UcD based, D-200, Dusty Vawter, chief designer at CIA, explained it this way. In essence, the D-200 was an award winning D-100 stretched to the practical limits to make a superb 200Wpc mono block amp. However, once he had successfully achieved the D-500 (500Wpc monos), the D-200 Mk II essentially packed everything he learned making the D-500 into that 200Wpc package. And, I'm here to tell you it is an exhilarating triumph!

The Mk II has more bass—both quantity (extension and impact) AND quality (bloom and pitch definition). Mids are sheer magic now; where they were very good, they are now more airy, full of breath, and texturally more replete. Highs shimmer with even more luminescence, yet there isn't a hint of graining or disparity, something I cannot say of ALL Class D designs. These were so good, I bought my review pair and they are now my reference amplifiers!
I have a full review in the works, so stay tuned. But what's not to like, tremendous value, versatility (single-ended or balanced inputs), and high efficiency. These are truly world class amps. With the Channel Islands Audio 30-day in-home trial period, what have you got to lose? $3500 a pair?
