Where on the review did you see that it is class D?
That would be very surprising to me given the fact that Devialet invested a lot into putting the entire magic Wire and ADH technology into an ASIC, therefore enabling Devialet to embed their core technology easily.
As for being jealous of or put off by having ADH technology at the price of the Skybox, I’m not sure it is justified. I was being told one day that the complexity and difficulties of designing an amplifier were more of less following the square of the power you were handling. If you add the fact that experts have a lot more than their DAC/ADH part (phono stage, ADCs, etc) or the phantoms have very unique transducers, I don’t think that the pricing positioning is that outrageous
