Hi guys,



** Typical Google / Hotmail troll opening.


Pardon my lack of technical lingo but Rotel and a few other companies
have been flaunting class D power amps.

I know that class A is the best in amplification however attaining
that level at higher wattage is only hypothetical.

I want to know what and how good is the supposed class D
amplification.



** Idiot question.

The questions should be:


Q. How bad are the worst examples of class D ?

A. Atrocious.


Q. How good are the bests examples of class D

A. Good as any hi-fi amp made.


Q. What is the motive for makers to use class D ?

A. Lower cost to make multi-channel amps.


Q. How do marketing pukes regard class D ?

A. A great new way to separate the terminally gullible from their money.
