Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???


I’m looking for a new amp & want Class D.

I’ve seen various brands mentioned, such as PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrel to name a few, but I’ve not heard any of them.

Which company is producing the best sounding Class D?
Which models should I be looking to demo?


Thanks

I'd have to say the Nuforce or Nuprime class D amps are definitely amongst the finest.  The ones Bob Smith at TDSS upgrades are THE finest and up there with the best sounding amps made.  I've tried my Nuforce Ref 9 V3 SE mono amps in at least 5 different systems with different speakers.  In all 5, the owners and all who heard said it was the finest the speakers and system had ever sounded.  Before the upgrades from TDSS, the amps were already very well reviewed and sounded very good.  After, they are more reliable and sound better in all the different parameters by a very discernible amount.  I've not heard all the different class D amps, but these amps I now own leave nothing to lust after.  They have power, great bass, detail and transparency, and are not hot on the high end.  They can drive pretty much any combination.  Mine will soon have the 500 watt power supplies installed.  They already had upgraded 350 watt supplies.
