MickyMcD Posted May 13, 2008 Report Share Posted May 13, 2008 No. Class D is PWM technology, that is Pulse Width Modulation. In other words, 'digital.' Class H topology is a multi stepped transformer/power stage. So at low power levels, the power stage is fed from a lower winding, higher power uses a higher winding on the transformer. Class D is not very good at reproducing high frequencies as that involves having the oscillator set to a much, much higer frequency, often beyond its limits. It also sounds 'clinical' and adds a sense of distortion to the overall tone. Class H is effecient and powerful, yet is still heavy, bulky and has its power limitations. In short, Class D is good for low frequency applications where high end fidelity is not needed but a metric dickton of power is. Class H is common in many Pro Audio amps as it can drive almost anything you put on it, and do it well. And no, Class H is not improved class D. Lab.Gruppen's class TD and RF's BD is though. I still reccommend grabbing a TAPCO and throwing that on, one coil a side. Parallel the amplifier so that both sides of the amp recieve the same input, put both attentuators wide open and prepare for take-off.

slvrcelicagt Posted May 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 ok that makes sense... i was planning on having the coils wired to seperate channels of the amp just like you suggested.. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
