Hi,
Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question.
I am trying to amplify a 0-1000 Hz sin signal to drive a 8 ohm EM load. I need the output power to be at least 20 W. Can a class D handle the job?
I saw all the specs only go down to 20 Hz.
Also, I would like the output to be zero if the input is zero.
Perticularly, can this

or this

work?
Thanks a lot in advance.

The amps have input coupling capacitors. By increasing the value of those you can lower the low frequency cutoff. It shouldn't be a problem getting linear response down to 1Hz but you will also have to increase the power supply capacitance to have the amp deliver full power at such a low frequency.

Yes, but you need a DC coupled, bridged amplifier.
