Spectron Musician III MK.2 or Audio Research DS450


Has anyone listened to the new Audio Research DS450M mono blocks or the DS 450 stereo Class D amp's and compared them to the Spectron Musician III MK.2?..

Audiozen...grew up listening to the same vinyl and a Sansui Model 8 driving a pair of Bozak B313's. Turntable was a Garard.
There is something special about Class A or enriched Class A/B with high current and massive power supplies...the sound is more colorful and organic!
I heard the new NAD digital amp and was surprised just how good it sounded...I'm stickin with Class A/High Current designs however. Based on what I hear today, the 90's were "The Golden Years of High Fidelity"...gear does not sound more musical today than it did back then and it often sounds worse:)
