Class D


Been thinking of trying a D amp to reduce clutter. Most that I see are not rated at 2 ohms.  My PSB Stratus gold's will drop to 3 ohms or lower at some frequencies. So my question is will these types of amps handle this impedance ?
Thanks in advance. Chris

Saying they are not "faster" is only accurate if you take a very narrow view of "faster". When you look at equivalent RDSon/Vout, you would be hard pressed to find similar speed in silicon.  Big advantage is Qrr is 0, but effectively that is tied to speed as well allowing less dead-time. Lowfi does not know this.
I don't see the potential dead times being similar as Qrr is a significant contributor of the dead time requirement outside of basic MOSFET switching performance.
