Review on Coda Technologies 16 Amplifier went live today

@yyzsantabarbara "The #16 is cleaner sounding like a Benchmark AHB2 but with a bit more Class A warmth.".

Is the added Class-A warmth keeping your attention towards the Coda 16 ($16k) vs the Benchmark AHB2 ($3k)? In other words, is that warmth worth another thirteen grand to ya. If yes, the Coda 16 must be really nice sounding. I’ve not heard either yet. Almost tempted to demo that AHB2 and slap some Cardas Clear Reflections on it and see what kinda added warmth happens just for fun.

@lancelock I absolutely love my Coda #16. It is the best SS amp I’ve ever owned. The only thing that could make me part with it would be the custom built tube mono blocks that will be arriving this week and that’s a maybe.

Uh oh, you did it now. Just kidding, or maybe not. 😉 It’s what I run again now after 35+ years with ss amps. What output tubes?

@lancelock by chance did you ever try the other Vision SET 400 class A/B design by AVA?
