Thank you. But Google provides only this thread here.
Mean you one of Sharp's old SM-SX series?

Unfortunately I don't find listening tests on the web both from Sharp and WADIA.

A friend of me is convinced, the approaches for Class-D from diyaudio-member Bruno Putzeys - go to
http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/search.php?searchid=9420625
provides the best sonic results. Which commercial products uses those approaches? Maybe Hypex UcD's and Sanyo's ICEPOWER modules?
Thank you for additional informations.

Why the perennial fascination with D types?
At best they come close to older type Amplifiers. Often/usually they don't. Just curious

Thank you for this advice.
I don't understand this term:
"perennial fascination"
Mean you long-standing fascination?
Indeed, Class-D has fascination to me as long the sound quality is like the best class-A amp brands like passlabs and halcro. But until now I haven't heard such class D amps.

I have heard, that Linn works hard in their development laboratory, to reach this. The results it will be interesting - so I think.
 
which currently available class D amp models sounds like the best available analog class A amp, e.g. like Halcro, PassLabs or Thorens TEM3200 ?
I am looking both to commercial products, module versions like ICEpower, Tripath or Hypex UcD and diy projects.
Thank you for advices.
Unfortunately not a wide range of different models and approaches until now.
