Series power amp supply

Hi
I have a toroidal trafo of around 40 V sec and want use it for a stereo power amp. As it don’t have center tap and I don’t want to use classic output capacitor topologies, I’m thinking on use a pair of class D amplifiers.
The problem is that the class D amps I’m thinking of don’t like more than say 30V supply.
So the question is: May I wire the two modules in series so each one draw half the voltage of the trafo?
Or..
At idle the amps will draw only a few volts and will be over voltage destruction.
The failure of one channel will destroy the other channel
The over voltage protection of the modules will have very hard times
The use of VDR will help or… will burn a lot of VDR’s

Thanks on advance
