It sounds like an interesting alternative to class D amplification, combined with an interesting battery tech that would be useful for portable devices but not terribly relevant to home theater. _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93

Quote: This scalable THX technology enables the low-profile design of cool-running, high-powered amplifiers for use in everything from HDTVs, powered speakers, automotive audio systems and handheld devices to performance-driven applications, such as top-of-the-line audio/video receivers and audiophile-quality amplifiers.

Lots of WAF potential. Hurry, kill it now before they find out!!! _________________________ Music system Model 990/7500/Magnepan 1.6 QRs/Technics SL1200 MK2/Aperion S-12 Subwoofer/OWA3/Sony NS75H DVD APC H15 Power Conditioner TV System Large Advent Loudspeakers/ Polk center/Monoprice surrounds/Panasonic Viera 42 inch/Onkyo HT-RC260/Sony BDP S590/Directv Home Theater System Onkyo PR-SC886/Outlaw 7125 Klipsch RF-82 L/R,RC-62 center, RB-35 SR/SL, BENQ HT1075, Outlaw LFM1-EX/OPPO BDP-83/Directv Harmony ONE Blue Jeans and Monoprice interconnects APC H15 Power Conditioner

thekaleideion Deputy Gunslinger Registered: 01/12/12 Posts: 2	A quote from the hometheater.com caught my attention. "Anyway, the result is a powerful low-profile amp that runs cool and efficient, avoiding both the power piggery of Class A and the problematic performance of Class D." Reminds me a lot of how Yamaha talks about their P series amps. "Class-AB sound quality, response and power with class-D efficiency". Would be interesting to know how similar their approaches are.

Retep Gunslinger Registered: 01/19/06 Posts: 266 Loc: Tauranga, New Zealand	I have one of D-Sonic's B&O ICE Amps and think it's great, but this sounds ideal. I'm curious what the cost will be for a multi channel home theater unit.

I'm curious what the cost will be for a multi channel home theater unit. I stumbled on these guys the other day: http://classdaudio.com/ Made in America. Roll your own or let them roll it for you. That might be an interesting choice until some other American manufacturers jump on the higher efficiency bandwagon. Best, _________________________ .signature
