[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 7743384, member: 628688"] There's absolutely nothing to gain by running A/B on subs. Full range Class D vs A/B will have people swearing up and down they need their A/B on speakers, but class D has a solid place in world class competition vehicles. The reason Class D can have noise is because of high frequency switching. Any good full range Class D amplifier will have that noise filtered so it's completely inaudible to our ears. Some class D amplifiers do this better than others. The old Eclipse full range Class D amplifiers are an example of a poorly executed design, while on the opposite end of the spectrum we have the JL HD series and the Alpine 2nd generation PDX series.
