I'd also recommend a class A/B amplifier...
Dave,

I have seen in this thread and, at least another, about what seem to be your misgivings about class-D amplification. What do you see as the most notable differences in behavior and/or clipping between class-D and class A/B that would lead to one being less desirable (accurate?) than the other for use with loudspeakers? I think your insights would be very educational.
