"But doesnt class d sound better?"
I think it way the world is going, one of these days all there will be is class D. Seriously. That or separate woofer amps in class D and high range amps of conventional design for high fidelity. The putsch is on for efficiency. They almost outlawed plasma TVs in Europe for pulling too much power. Over here being "Energy Star Compliant" is used as a selling point.
Thing is, I can't see how they get a good damping factor out of class D without alot of feedback. However it can be simply matched to a certain woofer/cabinet and I think whatever problems can be pounded out.
I have a JBL PSW-D112 which is a 12" with a 250 watt class D amp. It says in the manual that it is 103 % efficient. The amp is fried in mine so I use it as passive and I got enough power for it, but I still wonder how they arrived at that figure. Especially since it uses standard iron for the power, rather than an SMPS like an Icepower.
So now I just remembered another lie I had forgotten to mention. Great, ain't it ?
