[QUOTE="jlaine, post: 536225, member: 542392"] Incorrect Full range class D amplifiers have been out long before the Tripath chip was even stable to 100w, let alone the current 1kW + you see from them these days. The ONLY reason class "D" has been associated with 'subwoofer amplifiers' is because of the way the current market designs them. Switching frequency of the supply for class D's is the limitation of the high end of the bandwidth. It's cheaper for manufacturers to build a slower switching supply and put it in their 'subwoofer' amplifier than to build a higher switching supply and have a 'full range capable' unit. Class T is NOT a class D full range amplifier. It never has been, it never will be. [/QUOTE]
