| Class D amplifiers. What's the future look like? So you can see we didn’t go into this blindly. We knew the class D R&D would be a bust if it didn’t sound every bit as good or better than our OTLs (which, in the tube world, rule the roost when it comes to transparency and bandwidth...). @... | |

| Speaker recommendations :-) For a jazz loving guy in Europe with almost 540 sq ft of listening space, the larger Wharfedale Elysian 4 floorstander might be a good fit. At an affordable ~10k a pair, it goes up really well against many of the Wilsons and the Magicos without be... | |
