I think quite a few folks have gone to Class D amplifiers using tubed pre-amplifiers. @milpai
Very very few replaced tubes with Class D. Is that right?
New Class D amplifiers
Hello. I'm very interested in getting your opinion on the newer Class D amplifiers. There has been a couple of very positive reviews (by Guttenberg) of the Bel Canto C6i and NAD M23. These, and perhaps some others are offering new technology that significantly lower the class D noise level and other drawbacks.
I currently use a Class A amp, Pass Labs INT-25 (with Dynaudio Heritage Special speakers) which has a wonderful sound. But I am transitioning to another location, and due to using Roon primarily I find that this system stays on most of the day. Due to heat and power usage of Class A amplifiers, I'm interested in translating to Class D if I find something comparable.

Like I said @milpai most are using that configuration is it that confusing? And yes many have converted from Tubes to Class D. |
@milpai they are out there good luck in your search. |
@milpai I know that one member here did go from a tube integrated to a Aavik Class D integrated. He seems to jump around a bit (upgrading) a nice guy and knowledgeable. I think his handle is Afriq? BTW I still have a tube integrated. |
