I say check out Red Dragon Audio's Class D amp offerings. I have the Red Dragon M1000 Mk1 monoblocks and I couldn't be happier. With my Ohm MicroWalsh Short SEs the M1000s made the music from them more lively than when I was using a Hafler 9505 or a Jolida 502P w/ Tung Sol KT150 power tubes. Even with a pair of ELAC Debut B6 speakers the music sounded more alive with the M1000 monos vs the other amps I have. The great thing too is the monoblocks only consume about 35 watts total vs the 300 watts the Jolida consumed.
upgrading to class D amp.....
Hello fellow music lovers.
I am looking to upgrade my amplifier to a class D or digital amplifier, due to the fact that my electric bill is getting out of hand, since I work from home three days a week, and equipment is on all day; being fairly ecologically conscious, i am tired of the my amp being so inefficient in energy use.
So I decided to take the plunge and look for class D or digital amp.
Why: energy efficient, size, and from what I have read, manufacturers have made leaps and bound in quality.
Budget: up to $ 2000 , used or new.
speakers : focal 836/91db efficient music: classic, blues, some rock.
Looking forward to opinions and advice.
Thank you.
