Was the Red Dragon amp a class D amp?

Has anyone used Teo Audio cables as IC’s between a preamp and class D switching amp? If all of this alleged fear of using the SM assemblies with class D amps due to wide bandwidth signal transfer messing with the class D switching frequencies is v...

Without wanting to engage in regurgitated info already posted, the OP will ultimately want to select one or two of these amps for audition in his home system. All we can do is provide informed guidance to him.  
Jimmy Page, It's time to call your lawyers?
WXRT (a CBS radio affiliate) out of Chicago is hot for them (GVF).

David, I simply recommend taking all the input to heart. And factor in bias to the extent possible. The closer the owner’s gear setup is to mine, the more I’m likely to weigh that contributor’s input favorably for the reasons set forth below. Here... 
High resolution digital is dead. The best DAC's killed it.
Whoa...Erik and George in agreement? People, sniff deeply that rarified air.

An owner endorsing gear they own is simply bias confirmation. That in of itself should trigger a red flag in the minds of prospective purchasers. Are such endorsements valuable? Sure they are. Are they more valuable than anyone else’s input? I dou...

And I’m sure the OP (or any other causal reader) can discern that, too. You seem to discount the power of endorsement by an owner having spent hard-earned money on their gear.

@hk_fan, so dealers are D-bags yet owners are not for engaging in the same activity? It seems to me that the manufacturers and dealers who engage in self-promotion are not guaranteed any product sales for doing so.

@guyl, +1 for your impedance matching insight. I have a new thread devoted to that topic (again). Yes, manufacturers often voice their gear together. Once, the late John Ulrick of Infinity Systems and Spectron Audio fame told me to keep my Dunlavy...

After having survived a copyright infringement suit over the lead chords to Stairway to Heaven, I doubt Jimmy and LZ want to entertain similar suits against others. Copying the style of others is flattery, but it’s quite difficult to carry that fl...

@guyl, ARC and others design their gear to work synergistically together. So I’m not surprised you enjoy your ARC combination.

I find nothing wrong with a dealer or manufacturer making a contribution to a thread if they feel it’s warranted. Even if such posts might be perceived as blatant self-promotion, it’s up to the OP to evaluate the content of each post, as well as t...

For the enlightened, perceived abuse of another member is usually the reason why posts are called to the attention of moderators for removal.

The SQ should improve once each IC is broken in.
