In Reply to: RE: REVIEW: Class D Audio SDS-258 Amplifier (SS) posted by Rick58 on August 15, 2010 at 18:32:33:
Interesting. There was and is a lot of stuff going around about how class D doesn't have natural extended highs -- I just don't know; I'm basically totally deaf above 10 kHz. However what I do know is that this SDS-258 is significantly more accurate and natural sounding than the Monarchys, the Adcom, and the NAD. The other class D, I've owned, the Bel Canto, was closer but I think the CDA is better.The likes of Pass Labs, ARC Reference, Atma-Sphere, VTL, or Spectron, etc., might do wonderful things but I won't be getting any of them any at time soon. Good low-cost equipment is where it's at for me.
On the broader s/s vs. value controversy, my position has been that lot of people like latter because they are willing to trade accuracy for euphonics. (Is accuracy "ying" and euphonics "yang" or vice versa??)
