Technics SU-R1000 a new Class-D GaN Technology integrated




Maybe one to look out for.

There’s a new approx $10K integrated Class-D from Technics called the SU-R1000 Integrated Amplifier around 22 kg, 150w-8ohm and 300w-4ohms, would have been nice to see what it could do into 2ohms
.
Said to have many of the GaN Class-D features of the far bigger SE-R1. But nowhere yet can I find if it uses the 1.5mhZ switching frequency that "makes" the SE-R1 what it is.

Also it uses smp power supplies, even though it’s 22kg, Unlike the SE-R1 at some 60Kg because of it linear supplies.
No reviews or measurement tests as yet for this one from Technics

I could only watch 20 seconds...soon as I saw it was Robinson I checked out. That guy brags about his 40 Year old Pioneer Receiver (which wasnt that good when it 1st came out vs competition) so any review he does doesnt carry any weight in my book.
I found it quite good for a video review.

The real test will come with a Strereophile review and bench testing which will give the best insight into this very advanced designed Class-D amp that uses the newest GaN Technology.
