RE: "giant killing" class D amps?

SMSL SA50 is great.
I own one, in my bedroom system, pushing some Isophon 88dB 12inch woofer vintage "bookshelves", it sounds great. i once carried it trough town in my backpack, to a friend's party who's amplifier had died. It pushed a pair of bookshelf speakers to party levels all night without a sweat. It really is a little bomb.

in my main system I own a fully modded (all passive components upgraded) Trends TA10.1 driving the mids and highs in an active-biamped configuration; It drives horns. Sounds fantastic without the hassle (and heat, and power consumption) of tubes.
