RE: cheap receivers

i HAVE a cheap receiver... a technics, and i hate it! it sounds as thick and lifeless as NAD/sony on my JBL northridges. my planet audio class D car amp sounds much clearer.

i think too, you might be exaggerating just "how bad" cheap class D amps sound, and maybe have an anti-class D bias the same way i despise ports and would like to take an axe to every "distortion box" in existence.

my $15 sonic impact ran circles around my NAD before taking a dump on it, and a lot of audiophiles, including owners of $1,200 ascend acoustics sierra 2s & KEF LS50s, are happy with their little amps.

i'm just trying to undo the same unforgivable thickening my NAD used to cause that i'm getting from my technics now and so far, i've loved all 3 class Ds i've owned
