RE: sonic impact

again... i think a LOT of hate for class D, in general, is from people who prefer a warm & lush tubes/NAD/mc intosh/marantz kind of sound than a neutral/clinical one, which isn't fair as they'd have similar sentiments about a lot of uncolored gear.

i tend to HATE thick & warm sound which, TO ME, sounds "dull and lifeless" like turning the air in a room into syrup.

blaming class D for lack of euphonics just isn't fair. try putting a tube amp in front of one and THEN see if class D is capable of reporting THAT sound faithfully.

everyone seems to have forgotten that many years ago, when halcro 1st generation class D amps came out, many reviewers were raving they were "the best in the world".
