aaleks Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Hi all, just got a new set of speakers and would love to try some class d amplification with them. If anyone has an amp or a mono pair that they would be happy to lend, or just bring over for a listen that would be great. I'm in Carlton, NSW thanks, Aleks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaleks Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Gauder Cassiano ... I have tried few amps so far.. Emotiva SA-250 with them and primare i32 with NAD M22 and Yamaha M70 coming soon. Obviously not all class D. SA-250 had amazing mids and lows. Well controlled and punchy base, very engaging. But highs were a bit recessed and slightly lost in the background. i32 great mids and highs but bass not as controlled and engaging as emotiva. I should do review and comparison of these amps with my monitor audio GS60's while I still have them. Hmm perhaps an SNA GTG would be in order while I have so much gear at my place very much looking forward to trying out NAD M22 .. so many good reviews. I hope it's better than C390 which I tried few years back and found it lacking (although at the time it was compared with Luxman SQ38u and ME850 so perhaps not quite fair assessment).

KoNpHuSeD Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Not sure if I can tag on to your thread, but I'd like to listen to a power amp. I'm in Hurstville, NSW and want to see if my Focal Electra 1028 Be are distorting at high volumes is due to my Anthem MRX500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremrock Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 This thread is 6 months old, you may be better off starting up a new thread for more interest. If you can afford Winter's REF600s though they'd be about the best class D amps to be had I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoNpHuSeD Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Well the thread was near the top, so I thought it would be neater to post here instead of starting a new one. I want to test something to see if it makes a difference before I'd buy it. The Bel Canto is way more than I'd want to spend on a power amp.

Gremrock Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Fair enough, the want to buy section seems to get a lot more traffic so you could also posting there with a budget and a note wanting to audition first. I'm sure there's plenty for sale around Sydney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomstick Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Hi, aaleks. I have a pair of Red Dragon Audio M500 Class D mono blocks that I could bring over for a listen. They're each 500 watts at 4Ω. Hit me up with a PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
