You have to realize that very few companies in the world make good Class D type amps (half dozen or less), so most of these companies just buy modules from these few companies and package them. Then mark them up because of the "hi-tech" product. However, you might prefer the sound, but you'd have to audition the various ones out there. At least you should before you spend that kind of money. If you can't hear the difference yourself, then why spend the money. Your heating/electric bill might be a little different though.
that's just it. I can't audition them. That's unfortunate. I think I will wait until after I get back from Brazil in 3 weeks.
