Class D is ... as good as the saw tooth waveform used to create the output drive.
It will sound no different.
This is true only in an oversimplified, idealised model. Output filter, feedback, layout, dead time, etc... both have more impact on quality than pureness of triangle wave (that is not even exist in many type of very good ClassD amps). In my practice the amp had the nicest triangle had the worst quality, and the best quality amp didnt use any triangle.
...as good as the saw tooth waveform...
Each to their own.
Which sound is better quality class d or class ab? Pls help i deal only with class ab i want to know if class d sound better thanks
i find tas5630 modules are a lot better sound than 3116 ,even on same laptop psu. more expensive yes but lot better
there is lot different 5630 boards too,but all 5630 seem to sound better to me.
Sound perception is a personal thing. I would suggest get one of those cheap 3116/3118 amp boards that have received decent user feed backs and tried it out yourself. These amps are so cheap and can run off a lab top brick. Find out yourself first hand.
Regards,
I repeat: many different 3116 modules. Some of them are proven to be a faulty design, some are audiophil upgraded. If you didn't check them both, how can you judge them generally? It's impossible to qualify them in the same group.
5630 is a different question.

Did exactly that.
Got the Blu Black YJ version so loved by the Forum.
It proved as a complete failure.
Huge (fightening) On/ Off noises and an unresolvable ever present hiss.
The thing is in the parts box, a stop over point on it's way to the dumpster.
And yess.. I had some small familiarity with Chip amps over the past few years, having point to point DIYed one and even own a YJ ta 2020board which is actually quite decent.
Caveat Emptor Kids just cuz it's widely babbled about, it doesn't actually follow that it's as claimed... at least every time.
