I always liked Bi-polar designs over mosfet.. Don't know why but they are more organic sounding, mosfets have a more envelope sound to them and sometimes sharp, basically Mosfets were all the rage I remember with big name audio companies in the 90's and I tried a bunch out, it was kinda a trend like the Class D stuff etc.. going on right now, I find the new Digital designs to sound similar to the Mosfet designs to be honest, so its kinda a new twist on that sound, Cars sound best with mosfet in my opinion, at least the bulk of the designs I heard in the 1000.00 to 6000.00 range of amps.
There are a few big designers still using mosfet stuff, but honestly if you look around at the more expensive and discrete hi-end stuff its exclusivley bi-polar I believe.. I could be wrong but anyway thats what I see for the most part. Companies like boulder, gryphon, Mcintosh, Belles, McCormack, Odyssey etc.. that are the most mentioned and respected amps all seem to use bi-polars.
