| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Hello Guido, I had no idea you have such a musical background, very nice. My typical initial reaction, when I read negative comments about the sound quality of class D like those in clearthink's post , is to wonder exactly which class D am... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Uh-oh, it sounds like clearthink isn't thinking too clearly. Maybe his user name is satirical?Tim | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? Jeff, Exactly, your description is what I hear listening to very good class D amps. "There is generally a more relaxed presentation of the music because of these attributes" is an accurate summary of what to expect. Besides the relaxed a... | |
| Hey That's Not So Bad if It's Class D freediver, You discovered by chance what many home audio enthusiasts, including myself, have learned more methodically and thoroughly: the sound quality of modern class D amps is extremely impressive. The best class D amps are considered some... | |
| Opinions about upgrade spitzer45, The solution is either cables with an xlr on one end and an rca on the other or a male rca to female xlr connector adapter and a regular xlr cable from that to the 40a.Tim | |
| One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All.... brettmccee, I understand your preference for a disciplined scientific approach to audio with standards and an agreed upon language devoted to it All words, terms and concepts would be clearly defined and their usage very strictly obeyed. ... | |
| Opinions about upgrade spitzer45, Just to be clear, celtic66 is suggesting self-amplified ATC speakers and using your Hegel as a preamp/volume control only by connecting the ATC speakers to the Hegel's Variable L+R outputs via XLR or RCA cables, not speaker wires. ... | |
| Yamaha A-S3000 Vs Marantz PM-10 (new reference line) bluenote64, I haven't heard either receiver but I agree with aberyclark that current class D amps can sound very good. I've been using 2 stereo and a pair of mono block class D amps in my system for about 3 yrs. I've also helped a friend pick... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? jetter, The Stereophile reviewer heard significant sound quality improvements with separating the PS 700M monos and having them both on amp isolation stands rather than stacked. I'd suggest just trying the amps both ways in your system a... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? I read the Stereophile review on the PS 700Ms and it was very positive. The review was from Jan./2018 and the reviewer had just previously reviewed the AA DPA-1Ms. He thought the PS 700Ms were superior and even compared them to being s... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? tweak1, Forgot to mention: I think it’s very interesting that your getting PS Audio 700Ms and the gaincell dac/pre at a great price. I’m always interested in learning about others' experiences and views on class D amps and other equipment. ... | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? No problem. I think the biggest news of this thread is Atmasphere's upcoming introduction of a class D amp that will likely eliminate dead time with new circuitry that has a patent application pending and doesn't even require the use of... | |

| One Amp To ‘Rule’ Them All.... Grasshoppers, Confucius say:" Discussing politics, religion or best amp like sticking one's head in hornet's nest: no good will come of it."Tim | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? tweak1:"Well, just because they both use UcD does not mean they sound the same. I found the EP monos thin in the mids, which exaggerated the highs. They were used with my KCIIs as is the AA amp." Agreed. That's what I meant when I stated "I d... |
