Rotel class D amps? Compare to other ICEpower amps?

[Holland]

Hi all,

I just found out (yes I am a bit slow) that rotel is also jumping on the ICEpower amps with its class D products. Does anyone here have experience with these ICEpowered amps from rotel?
How does the rotel class D amps sound compared to other ICEpowered amps from brands like Bel Canto or Acoustic reality? Ofcourse there are some price tag differences. I am familiar with the tripath technology which I like for the sound but less for the power (had the t-amp hooked up to some b&W 601 which sounded quite nice), how does ICEpower compare to the tripath?

I really doubt that it would be up with a Bel Canto, but more in line with items like the Flying Mole's.

Then again, after looking around, I can say that I am disappointed with how little extra effort has gone into some of the amps using various modules by supposedly "hig end" companies.

Well,
I've seen some sweeps of the flying mole's and a sweep of the Rowland products and a sweep of the Rotel:

the Rotel is very different than the others... it actually goes up to 20K without massive roll off...

Has anyone tried/own the Halcro Logic MCA line of class D amps yet?

There have been a few threads that compared the new digital amps with Rotel linear amps and other manufacturers. For comments on the Halcro line of digital amps, take a look over on AVSFORUM under >$20K systems.
