What is your favorite Class D amp?


Moving to a new home with a smaller dedicated listening room has caused me to rethink my entire system.  I have always been a fan of EL34 tube amps and presently have a Primaluna HP (4 tubes per channel), but the size and heat make this a bit more difficult in my new set up.  So I have been thinking about going with a smaller, less hot class D amp.  But being a tube guy, I have never seriously looked into or listen to these amps.

so what is your favorite class D amp?  New or used, in the 5k range, but could go up to 10k.  Preamp is a Conrad Johnson ET-7.  Speaker will be in the monitor/mini-monitor class (so I don’t need high power for a smallish room) but have not made my final decision on speakers as the amp/speaker synergy makes this kind of a joint decision.

I purposely asked for “favorite” to be a bit more open in your relies.

thanks, Bill

i am very happy with my arthur boxem

(purifi) powering sonus faber olympica i. small footprint, cool running, gain options, no audible distortion  even when i play loud (rarely).

 

preamp is lab12, tube based 

(but i haven't compared others) 

 

Most stated are only power amps. Does anyone make a Class D integrated amp with phono preamp and tone controls?

marantz model 30? lyngdorf?
