Default Class D power amplifier---what about class-D CD?

"New_idea" wrote in message

Just wondering...


If the music producer can record music as PWM (pulse
width modulation) signal direct onto CD.


What's wrong with PCM?

Than a "class-D" CD player doesn't need a Digital-Analog
converter.


Why worry about solved problems?

DACs are now cheap and good.

The PWM signal can be feed direct to a class D
power amplifier.


Providing it used pure PWM, which is not a given.

This can save a lot of "signal conversion'"


Not a serious problem right now.

Here's a question - how will you implement tone and volume controls?
