Hey That's Not So Bad if It's Class D


 So I don't have an amp right now & was fiddling around in the kitchen with music playing from my Samsung big screen when I realized the sound coming from the living room wasn't too bad...Bass had good definition but no depth or impact,drums sound like drums but again no impact,I can tell Slow Hands Strat from BB's Gibson & Greg Allman 's latter years rasp comes through with just enough gravel......There's no low level detail but I attribute that to the internal speakers..
Epiphany!!! I am most likely listening to a modern Class D Amplifier in the Samsung...If it is indeed Class D color me impressed enough to explore  the tech further....

Class D amps from major manufacturers have never sounded terrible. The way some talk, one would think class D had CB Radio sound quality and Class A was HD fm radio. Even 20 years ago class D could sound very good. The sound difference is not anything most people would notice in a “playing in a room background” situation.
