I’ve heard Wyred4Sound class D amps that sounded very good, maybe one of the best bang for the buck amps out there and a Wadia combo driving Vandersteens that sounded awesome. Both high power per pound values. Hey remember good old Bob Carver. He could make a 500 watt class G amp weighing about 15 pounds and sell it for under $1000 😂 (give or take) I love the guy, he made thousands off me in the 80’s
