Probably some digital amp. Their output transistors (high speed switching fets) go full on to full off at about 500KHz. I really like the sound of my CarverPro ZR1600, but I would not give slew rate all the credit.

The Sim Audio W-5 is a fast sounding amp and has great bass control for your slow woofers. Under $1000 try on of the McCOrmack DNA-1s.

Happy Listening.

Not sure it's "the" fastest but the Job stereo is certainly very fast and sounds very good.

Timo - I have very slow woofers.

Some would argue the 'sounds good' part, but the Krell KAV 300i is very fast. Can pick up used for +/- $1,000.

n.a.d.

What is this doing in the analog section?

The McCormack's are fast amps but I agree with Timo, lot more to it than speed. For example, the Belles 150a Hotrod is not as quick as the McCormack but it is also fuller and richer sounding that makes music sound more like music. They're a lot of good amps on the market now. System synergy is more important than any of the other gobbly-gook(ie; what speakers, preamp and source(s).

Why are you so interested in an amp having the fastest slew rate? There is much more to a great sounding amp than slew rate.

try the Rowland model 1 can't be beat at their going price here
