Anybody else waiting for GaN and Purify to have a baby?

@jjss49 — Great synopses, and thank you.  Most helpful and look forward to future thoughts/comparisons and if anymore changes to the GaN 5 with more hours. 

@jjss49
Do you plan on having the Crimson 275 within the Mini 5 shootout? I'm hoping so. Good comparison for the more budget boys. 
I know your time with the Mini 5 might be limited, so either way thank you for your contributions to help benefit the community.

I share your thoughts about the AGD's, you can have your cake and eat it too.

That was a pleasure to read, what a wonderful and descriptive report. I may have to get that Mini GAN amplifier and shed my cranky Naim. Better for the planet too.

Respect, and best regards.

Very nice review of the Mini GAN 5 and it matches my experience of the amp. It is an amazing value at $750. I have the Nuprime IDA-8 and I would be shocked if you found it competitive with the Mini GAN 5. I also have the Peachtree GaN 400 which I like very much. You might want to give it or the Voyager GaN 350 a try, I think both companies offer a 30 day return policy. I love pretty much everything about the GaN 400 except it also lacks that juicy fat midrange which is especially noticeable on male vocals. On the other hand the amount of separation and amazing purity, clarity, and tonal accuracy are huge positives. It would be very interesting to see how you felt it compared to the AGDs.
