A digital amplifier apparatus includes a gain-adjusting section operable to adjust a gain of a digital audio signal; a dither-superposing section operable to superpose a predetermined dither on the digital audio signal; a pulse-width-modulated signal generating section operable to generate a pulse-width-modulated signal corresponding to the digital audio signal; an amplifying section operable to cause a switching element to perform a switching operation in accordance with the pulse-width-modulated signal; a pulse-width changing section operable to change a ratio between a "high" state and a "low" state of the pulse-width modulated signal; a synchronizing section operable to synchronize the pulse-width modulated signal with a reset signal that resets the digital audio signal; and a control section operable to perform a resetting operation by setting the gain of the digital audio signal to a zero level upon receiving the reset signal, stopping the superposing of the dither to thereby generate the pulse-width modulated signal, and setting the pulse-width modulated signal to the "low" state by using the pulse-width modulated signal synchronized with the reset signal, thereby causing the switching element to stop performing the switching operation.
