How is the actual sound quality on high frequencies as opposed to a normal high quality non chinese amp (FFA, powersoft x, linea, plm, mc2, dynacord, etc). The new AD442 claims to have 1% THD which is very high so I think its either the truth or some kinda massive typo as the other amps claim 0.5 but average of 0.05.

Its the same test standard as powersoft k series. I have used the ad430 dsp version, and would place the next to a k series amp sound wise. Not sure how it holds up against t or x series. But wat do you want for that price

1% THD has been the standard in Pro Audio Amplifiers for over 40 years.

It seems very high considering that most good amps are only 0.05% . It can color the sound with excessive distortion.

Well the answer is very simple. Don't Clip the amplifier and you won't need to worry about 1% THD. The only people worry about THD are those that are trying to extract every bit of power from the amplifier. Those that use the available power as headroom don't worry about THD. The only manufacture that implemented the idea 0.05% THD in Professional Audio was Crown using their IOC Indicators. It was never the standard in Professional Audio.

I repaired a POS LG mini system for someone last year. It claimed some silly power output, so I found the manual to check how it was measured. 25% THD... I can only imagine what that would sound like!
