Replacing Emotiva XPA-2 & XPA-5 power amps in HT system with class D


So I am considering replacing the hot running, power sucking, large Emotiva power amps in my main room home theater system with one single 7 channel class d amp.
Any good suggestions?
I do like the idea on the d-sonic 7 channel amps where they can have much more power on the front 2 or 3 channels as surrounds usually do not need 200w or more!
Anybody have good experiences?
Thank you

I bet that would be plenty of power (and more than likely overkill for your ML center, which I also have).  One thing you should obviously do if this is the setup you're after is simply get a 7X unit with the modules that you want versus one 4X and one 3X.  Save a few bucks and a bunch of rack space.

Let us know how it works out for you!

PS - Not sure where you're located, but if you happen to be in the NYC area, you're welcome to come give a listen.

that is  a most generous offer but unfortunately way south in florida!
and yes part of the plan is also to condense the present two box amps down to one so a d-sonic 7 channel is the way, about $3500 in the config i was looking at
uberwaltz,

     I think D-Sonic is a very good choice for a multi-channel class D amp, too. Looks like the 7-ch is very flexible and I know the Ice, Abletec and Pascal modules he offers in his amps  are all good performers. Dennis is great to deal with, too. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

      I've owned a pair of D-Sonic mono-blocks for over a year now and they've been excellent on my main speakers.  Class D is ideal for replacing class A/B amps like your Emotiva.  Class D sounds better, is lighter, smaller, more efficient and doesn't gets warmer than luke-warm.  For myself, switching from class A/B to class D was all benefits with no negatives at all.

Good choice,
   Tim
All good that I am hearing so far on the d-sonic, thanks to everybody for that!
Has anybody experienced Nuforce class d amps at all?
Bought a NU-FORCE 8 channel class d amp and replaced the two Emotiva tanks total about 160lb weight with the one slimline box of approx 30lb.
Could I hear a difference?
Yes, the nuforce actually sounds a lot cleaner than the emotivas especially on music.
i am convinced now on good class d amps can actually be well....good.
