Mark from Audio Alchemy is sending me one to try. I went on wiki and read some. Are they like the T amps?

Hmmm, kinda, I call them 'switchers' cuz they switch the voltage on and off to make power when it's needed for output, saves power that would be wasted into heat. I'm interested how Mark 'the tube guy' got into these.......can't wait to talk to him about that!
I'm into the old skool of power on all the time, as in big beefy Class A power room warmers, my Yammie amp has a weird 'Hyperbolic Conversion' amplification circuit which I've never heard explained proporly anywhere. Supposed to be a Class A that runs super cool and switches to A/B on peaks. I know it has really absurd dinky thin alluminum heat sinks inside it.
Class D is the wave of the future according to some designers, there's lots of new work and $$$$'s being spent on upping the ante on these little guys. Any hints on what he's sending you?
