D-SONIC SOA Class-D Core Amps. The best Class-D ?

Owner/Designer Dean Deacon of D-Sonic in Houston in recent months dropped using the B&O ICE amps which he now only uses in the surround channels of his multi-channel home theater amps. He now uses a new Class-D amp in all of his Magnum2 mono and two channel amps which he states is the most technically advanced Class-D amp on the market, called the SOA Class-D core amps. The recent review in 6Moons of his new M2-1500M amp concludes its the closest that Class-D has ever come to tube amps in the upper mid-range and high frequencies.
Anyone bought or heard recently the D-Sonic M2-1500M or the M2-600M? What are your opinions?

I am sure I have over 300 hours of actual playing time.
I really think they preform better then any AB amps I have owned. They remind me of a pair of class A amps I owned some years ago.

Hi Tan43, your D-Sonic amps are likely to continue to sweeten for another 700 hours or so... Do keep us posted on their progress. G.

I have abletec modules, they took about 900 hours for basic break in and still improved slightly over the next several hundred

Thank you Timlub, I suspected that much... The newest generation Class D modules are late bloomers as much as the previous designs, but... when new generation class D amps come into full bloom, marvellous things are often heard *grins!*
