"Thou shalt listeneth before thee cast judgment upon thy widget"

I've auditioned seven different products, the two Sonic ImpactTRIPATH (the expensive silver aluminum unit is OK),
Red Wine AudioTRIPATH(best sounding of the type, but bettered by Samson solid state),
TeacTRIPATH(sounds grainy- It's actually sitting dormant on the SET system table),
NuForce 8 MonoblocksPROPRIETARY?(sounded nice, but then "NO MAS, NO MAS!!!", interference monster),
TactEQUIBIT ("artificial tube warmth"),
and SpectronPROPRIETARY("dead" sounding- the biggest disappointment for the price).

In 2001, while working at Philips Applied Technologies in Leuven, Belgium, Putzeys designed a compact, versatile class-D amplifier module that he called UcD, for “Universal class-D”..

Got it?

One, most of them badly interfere with FM reception.

Most? My Harman Kardon DPR2005 receiver pulls in AM and FM most excellently. Explanation? Oh yeah, "most"...
FYI, that's a D2Audio.

I've not heard one that touches good solid state, let alone good tubes, sonically speaking.

Sounds like a personal problem stemming from ignorance of the subject matter, poor "synergy" or some other audiophile malady.
BTW, the article linked was about Bruno Putzey and his UcD amp design.

cheers,

AJ
