| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @pennfootball71 All good stuff there. I can see where Andy Miles may get good synergy using Lampizator Horizon and the Kalugas. I prefer not to introduce tubes to a source any longer and will either only have them in a preamp or power amp, for co... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @yyzsantabarbara Ha! All good on the T+A comment. I used to think T+A was on the warm side but I realize it’s more prominent in their HV series DACs (also controllable through the DAC filters) vs their amplification and preamplification. Bear in... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Sadly I don’t have the EDGE M - only the EDGE A integrated and EDGE NQ Streaming DAC Preamp. The integrated and the EDGE W power amp are identical in design aside from the identical volume stage found in the EDGE NQ also being present in the EDGE ... | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes @300bdude I think I you will be very pleased. Mine are broken in now in my T+A S10 and the amplifier sounds spectacular. It is a different beast than my T+A HV reference series amplification but neither are overall better than the other across the... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @j-wall I agree with you on your perception of Cambridge Audio and have shared it myself. I was honestly floored by their EDGE line’s performance, which is why I dedlcided to deal for them. The only items I carry on my floor are their EDGE electro... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @j-wall The M-200 is largely similar in design to the A 200 but from what I understand. it is not simply a bridged version of the A 200, but optimized to deliver even against more difficult impedance loads. I have heard the M 200 with the DAC 200 ... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @j-wall I did mention the M 200 monos earlier in this thread. I am a T+A dealer and also have the A 200 amplifier on the floor. I may add the M 200 for my floor in the near future. The A 200 does not sound like a typical Class D amp. It is quite m... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Thanks @orchardaudio. I submitted an inquiry through your contact form yesterday, FYI. | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @nickintroy Which one did you try, Rev 1.0 or Rev 2.0? Did you have one with an upgraded power supply? In what ways is the Hegel better? Earlier in this thread I mentioned I was impressed with the Cambridge EDGE A. There has been more than one re... | |
| Has anyone heard the TAD Evo One and the Raidho TD floorstanders? How do they compare? @fastfreight Honestly, I don’t have a ton of experience with either of your speakers. I know of them and may have heard them at shows or dealers over the years, but I haven’t had them in my room with electronics that I’m familiar with. I do have ... | |
| Anyone buy one yet? Thoughts? Well, to be fair, while Tidal has Tidal Connect, it is basically just broadcasting Tidal from your device to the streamer, and that has limitations. Qobuz has no native protocol like Tidal Connect for streamers. While Denafrips has not developed a... | |
| Has anyone heard the TAD Evo One and the Raidho TD floorstanders? How do they compare? I haven’t heard the TAD Evolution One enough to understand its performance (only once at a show years back and wasn’t familiar with the electronics). Raidho is lovely, one of my favorite speaker brands, up there with Borresen and Vivid Audio. Rai... | |
| About ready to give up on Roon and my streamer In that range, I’d look at a Sonore OpticalRendu on the used market. It still needs a 3rd party app of sorts to connect it over DLNA, but that shouldn’t affect sound quality in the way Roon has in many situations. Unfortunately there is no Qobuz “... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? I would think low-volume performance in Class D amps is not solely reliant on low noise (albeit that being a huge factor), but also the amount of attention in delivering the appropriate quality and control in those first few watts? | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Actually, @atmasphere I was just reading the other A’Gon thread on your amps and came across a post on why certain upgrades aren’t made largely because they won’t be audible due to the high amount of feedback you run through the amps. If that’s th... |
