Amp class Question for SQ

There is a difference between A/B and D but when your using Class D as a sub amp it doesnt really matter. Thats why most mono amps are class D

It's even more evident with a sub. Class D amps on subs(for the most part)sound sloppy/lose.

An AB class amp with a high damping factor will give a well controlled tight bass.

I've done a lot of comparing between Class D & AB, and thats what I can hear.

You will need good quality HU and Sub, but the SQ difference is there.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

So which two sub amps where you doing a comparison

with using the exact same sub's setup in the same car

as a reference point?

this seems to come up at least once a month. The real problem is, the distortion and other non-linearities in even great speakers are an order of magnitude greater than amps ...... so you won't ever hear it. If you think car audio has "snake oil" salesmen, you should check out the high end home audio market. They did an ABX test where they pitted very expensive wires against coat hangars wired up as speaker wires - the golden ears could not pick out the coat hangars at any better rate than random guessing. Gotta laugh .......

No one here can debate you on your experience. But most of what you said isn't factual, it's mythical. Even if you went through and defined "sloppy/lose," "controlled," quality HU," and "SQ" we could still sit here and shoot holes in your lack of understanding how electrical components actually work.

Only a fool shoots at sounds in the forest.

You know nothing of my understanding of how electrical components actually work.

Thats the thing about opinions , just because you have one, does not make it right.

Please do a little research, or better yet, Open your ears!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I just adjusted the damping factor on my monitor so that I don't have to read your nonsense anymore. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Please stop posting, you're just going to end up looking like an idiot. Seriously. I'd pick your posts apart, but you already made up your mind that you have hearing capabilities beyond what the best of science has shown us. So, good luck with all of that.

I run the SQ series in my daily driver, and they are some of the cleanest amps I have heard. I would compare them to the O/S Soundstream Class A's. Very Nice.

No.

Early class D amps had high distortion rates and low dampening factors and got the rep for poor SQ, although when powering subs it was almost impossible to tell. Modern class D's do not suffer from these problems and now it really is impossible to notice a difference.

No, you can't hear a differnce between A/B vs D.
