An amplifier system may include a first stage having a plurality of inputs configured to receive a differential pulse-width modulation input signal and generate an intermediate signal based on the differential pulse-width modulation input signal, a quantizer configured to generate a modulated signal based on the intermediate signal, a single-ended class-D output stage configured to generate a single-ended output signal as a function of the differential pulse-width modulation input signal, a feedback network configured to feed back the single-ended output signal to a first input of the plurality of inputs and to feed back a ground voltage to a second input of the plurality of inputs, a plurality of buffers, each particular buffer configured to receive a respective component of the differential pulse-width modulation input signal and generate a respective buffered component, and an input network coupled between the plurality of buffers and the first stage. Each particular buffer of the plurality of buffers may include a buffering subcircuit configured to buffer the respective component of the differential pulse-width modulation input signal associated with the particular buffer in order to generate the respective buffered component and a biasing subcircuit configured to limit a magnitude of the respective component of the differential pulse-width modulation input signal driven to circuitry of the buffering subcircuit for driving the respective buffered component.
