another +1 for the LSA Voyager GaN 350
My friend asked for a recommendation to replace his Cambridge amplifier, traded it in for the LSA Voyager and thank goodness it was so much better.
I'll most likely go to GaN myself, just going to let designers play with it some more. I read with interest on the Atmosphere monos but my speakers are a little thirsty, and I'm running 2 x 400watt (not that I run them at 100%) at the mo.
Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs)
Hey guys.
Class A is supposedly superior. Something to do with a conduction angle of 360 degrees...so the entire signal gets processed in one go without crossover distortion.
But in terms of sound quality (subjective enjoyment) is there a benefit to Class A? Can class D provide the same level of enjoyment?
The dealer I’m talking to says that really nice Class A amplifiers are designed for "reference quality" meaning completely true to the real life performance.
Let’s compare and contrast. Which one is technically better?
In other words, could you have equal technical performance and quality in a Class D amp?
