How good's your hearing

George. What is your reason for constantly bashing class D? In every thread where it is mentioned, you feel it is your civic duty to protect everyone from what you consider class D propaganda. Can't you imagine there are people out here that like class D?

What do you hope to accomplish? Stop global warming, promote world peace, further humanity?......Or what???
He bashes because he has never sat down and actually listened. His agenda is to promote fear and anxiety fueled by ignorance. The emperor, once again, has no clothes. I find it mildly amusing, to a point, and then it’s just pathetic. Change and progress can be very difficult from some.
George is stove-piped in on technical challenges associated with Class D for some reason. Don’t know what is the agenda. Maybe its similar to feeling resentment towards a beautiful girl that you really like but jilted you in some way? Who knows. Contradictory findings of others do not seem to matter to him. As if that is the only audio technology that still has unique challenges, especially when it comes to making good sound practically affordable to more.


To each their own.  Definitely a bad look though.

Having said that the vast majority of readers of this forum would not be able to hear anything above say 12 / 13 K Hertz. So any discussion about 100k etc is snake oil.

interesting comment.

now from here...

Typical hi-hats are usually between 300-3000 Hz dominant frequencies, and can extend up to 10-17k Hz for crispness, “air” and sparkle.

A worthy note incidentally, is that many audio engineers insist that even though one cannot conceivably hear beyond 20k, one can feel beyond 20k, which is why they are adamant about capturing ALL the recorded frequencies (especially metallic percussion). They feel that one can sense those “inaudible” frequencies, thus making the recording richer, and more open sounding.


Take the high frequency test
