I own a 2K Peachtree GAN FET amp and an Aavik Pascal Module Class D amp ( the most expensive Class D Module to date @ 20K. The Aavik sounds in a different league ,HOWEVER...the Peachtree with a quality tube preamp is a delightfully musical experience. I have the Aavik to match the wonderfull highly regarded Borresen X-3 speakers......but the Peachtree drives them beautifully also and very musical I might add !
GaN FET Amps vs. Traditional Class D Amps
I'm trying to get a better understanding of GaN FET amplifier technology. Whenever I see a write up on GaN FET based amplifiers they are always compared against class A or class A/B amps. What I'm more interested in is how they compare to the current generation of 'traditional' class D designed amplifiers, both technically and sonically. Can anyone explain it to me?
Thank you.
