class d - anyone compared bel canto/CI/wyred4sound

Dave, you said you heard a Lamm ML2.1 amplifier. The only other reference
to Lamm in this thread was a Lamm LL2 preamp.

Why are you making a judgement about Lamm based on one session listening
to a single ended triode amplifier, particularly when it was a preamplifier that
was mentioned in this thread? You seem more reasoned than this.

To the OP's question, I have owned or auditioned Bel Canto Ref1000 and
Channel Islands D100 and D200 amps, and I wouldn't own either of them. If
your speakers have a flat impedance curve, NuForce Ref 9 V2SE would be my
choice over the other two...considering the price point.

its interesting how the call amps, class a, classab, class b and class d.

d is poor grade. why would anyone want to listen to a class d amp ?

>>d is poor grade. why would anyone want to listen to a class d amp<<

It's obvious you haven't heard some of the latest products or you simply don't hear well.

TVAD, if you have last listened to a Bel Canto Ref 1000 Mk.1, you may want to have a listen to the Mk.2. . . you may find it to be more nuanced.

Guido. I did hear the MK I. The MK II may be more nuanced, but I am no
longer searching for an amp, and therefore I have no interest in hearing one
at this time.

OP, please disregard my comment about the Bel Canto Ref1000, unless you
might be considering purchasing a used MK I version.
