Seeking advise from members . There has been lot of reviews about the trend of Class D switching Amps compared to A/B amps.
Have been told that Nuprime evolution one mono block, Legacy powerbloc 2, Benchmark AHB2 will out perform A/B Monoblock like Bryston cubed or even Tube mono blocks using KT150 Tubes. This is hard to believe unless my ears can listen to them. I don't have the opportunity to listen to the Class D. amps, unless I pay and return with in 30days for full refund only cost would be shipping the equipment back. Would love to simultaneous test but will not. have funds to buy couple at a time.
I presently have Auris Audio Forte 150 mono's powering Focal Sopra N3 speakers, Audiovale Eclipse preamp and.Linn Klimax DSM streamer/Dac.
I think as you get older the hearing is also undergoing changes. I am probably looking for more tonal detail in mids and highs rather than deep bass that I already have with my system. some of these lesser known companies that make Class D switching amps seem to have great product , may be not marketed well or they do direct selling. Some results are hard to believe on distortion level , S/N, some of them have even over 500 WPC that can drive any hungry speakers and priced at 25-40% of well known A/B amps. I am curious to hear the opinion from experienced fellow members. I have the time to do this now while maintaining social distance and playing safe .
