Class D is just Dandy!


I thought it was time we had a pro- Class D thread. There's plenty of threads about comparisons, or detractors of Class D.

That's fine, you don't have to like Class D amps, and if you don't please go participate on one of those threads.

For those of us who are very happy and excited about having musical, capable amps that we can afford to keep on 24/7 and don't require large spaces to put them in, this thread is for you.

Please share your experiences with class D amps!

Anyone looking at trying the NC500 boards should look at Nord,
Kenny I am using a BHK pre with the Nord mono's and it is awesome

When I was trying to the latest class D experiment, Nord was on my short list. I ended up going with D-Sonic because the latest Pascal modules are supposed have technology that lowers switching noise to levels lower than previously possible and they receive universally positive reviews (so do the nCores as a matter of fact).

Another factor, I hear claims that the NC1200 is subjectively greatly superior to the lower end modules, and if that's the case it would be like robbing from myself to go with less. Unfortunately, NC1200 products are in the 10k+ range...

But here's the thing, the D-Sonics crushed my soundstage and seemed to lend themselves to listener fatigue. Do they need class A preamping or a tube stage?
