Please excuse my ignorance, but Class D amps are digital, right?
If so, looks like NHT is releasing a couple of these power amps. Given that NHT speakers are generally not so efficient, about 86 dBs, these new amps should be pretty good at powering more power-hungry speakers....the below is from their press release for CES:
301 and 302 Amplifiers
The 301 (SRP: $225) and 302 (SRP: $225) amps are designed to allow installers to recommend amplification options that combine simplicity of operation with value-added features. Both the 301 and 302 employ cool, highly efficient class D amplifiers coupled to reliable high-current linear power supplies.
The 301 is a 100 Watt mono amp that is ideal for high power applications, or installations where traditional stereo is not required, e.g. bathrooms, hallways, and outdoor speakers. The incoming two-channel signal is internally mixed to mono, allowing use of up to three paralleled high-fidelity single speakers. For traditional two-channel configurations, the 302 provides a robust 50 Watts-per-channel output.
Both the 301 and 302 include 12V trigger and RCA inputs/outputs, and are rack mountable with an optional accessory kit. Each model measures 1.75โ x 8.5โ x 10โ (H/W/D), and weighs 14 lbs.
