BTW, I tried Tidal HD and didn't like the interface. It did give me more dynamic sound than Spotify Premium.
I also tried Amazon Music HD and found Spotify to be marginally more dynamic. That was a huge surprise.

Congrats on finding the fuse Chess. Lots of people really liked that Amp.
Axiom created\designed their own style of class D. I think it's only D in the switching or mosfet circuit. But still A\B at heart. There's still some decent content, a few years old on you tube of the trials and tribulations they had doing the design. Mind you I'm not sure if, or how much it has changed since teaming with Bryston.
I haven't yet made my M80v4 woofers dance with my ADA1250x3 up to 11. Like Mojo's video showed his M100 dancing. I've got the volume limited to reference. The 1250 goes reference with ease. Might try maxed out one day just to see if it triggers the cut-out circuitry. If my woofers can dance like Mo's maybe we can start a nation wide Hula speaker party.

I can't remember if I did this with the 1000 or the 1500. I'm pretty sure it was the 1500. Guys, I honestly thought I was hallucinating. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-NnWo61RUvVFabKlDj0z_gd7jyYuQFpt/view?usp=drivesdk

It was a success. I watched the new Aladdin at close to reference levels, then some loud music for awhile after... She's just purring  Thanks gentlemen. I'm a happy camper!

So I've now brought myself up to speed on state of the art in class D audio amps. Holy mackerel, it's come a long way since my Class D days. The reference designs available are quite advanced unlike when we used to create the reference designs...LOL! ICs are available to fulfill many of the functions but there's still a lot of work a manufacturer needs to do to make them all work together and play nicely with the electromagnetic field we are all immersed in.

Dude, that is so awesome. You've made my week.  Those are not HP drivers, correct?
