ASR list of known class D home audio amplifiers.

[MoreWatts]

The McIntosh MI502 amplifier uses Class D Hypex modules (I can't find which), SMPS power supplies and has blue meters. $4500, 22 lbs.

They have 4, 8 and 12-channel Class D amps available also. Blue meters for 2 and 4 channel, while 8 and 12 get LEDs. They're sold as they are meant for install, but use standard home audio connections. I didn't look for pricing on the larger amps.

This is one we gotta get Amir to measure... 500 watts! I mentioned this in the 'Bose buys McIntosh' thread, but thought I'd post it here to get these into the database.

The amp section of Pioneer's NC-50DAB is class D.

You missed the Parasound 2350. 600 x 2.

Forgive me if any Quad Acoustics amps have already been named. Artera. Platinum.

Which Artera? The Mono and Stereo are both current dumping designs, and the Solus Play doesn't appear to be class D either. https://quad-hifi.co.uk/products/platina-series has no details beyond 'Coming Soon...' and a front panel harking back to the FM4.

Thanks, my bad. The Platinums were their premier solid state from ten years or so ago. I have two of the monos. Current dumping A/B, as you say.

Creek 4040 A - Integrated with DAC. Infineon Merus based power stage with an output filter, unlike some of the Merus based amps. Power output claimed as 55W 8R, 110W 4R - duration and distortion not specified. 5W idle, <0.5W standby.

The now defunct Acoustic Realitymade several ICEpower based power amplifiers. The ones I can remember are:
eAR Enigma Plus
eAR 202
eAR 501
eAR 1001

I'm pretty sure the numbered ones later came in a REF version. From what I can read others said about the REF version is, that the only real difference was the 3x higher price.

I should also have said that I have an analogue Artera pre-amp, which is still marketed, connected to the Platinums.

Let's add 3e Audio A5 / A7 / A7 mono / A5se / A7SE to the list?
