Speakers 10 years old or older that can compete with todays best, I still listen to a pair of Vienna Acoustics Mahler which I have since 2001, they sounded great and even better after upgraded crossover caps. | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Thanks Soix, I will have a look. I sometimes modify equipment myself but I would not mess about with the circuit topology. Normally I would clean up the mains if needed, sometimes upgrade passive components to better ones (but one has to be very c... | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @soix thanks but I can't see a link. | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @ricevs I am not familiar with your modifications, the same question as Tjag above, can you describe your modifications and how each one effects the sound of the amplifier? Which amp is your favourite for modding? | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @mbmi Do I understand you right that you prefer the Peachtree to the Aavik? Also you are comparing an integrated (the Aavik U-150) to a power amp with a separate preamp. Is there any way to bypass the preamp section of the Aavik and use your Audio... | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @blisshifi Thank you for taking the time to form such a detailed reply, it is exactly what I was looking for. I have been using Class D amplifiers for almost 20 years and the technology keeps on improving, IMO they are the future of amplification.... | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @blisshifi No problems, the Pascal modules (UMAC) don't use GaN technology, one of their features that makes them different to Hypex, Pufiri, IcePower and the rest of the classD designs is that they use a sinusoidal waveform instead of the more wi... | |
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Aavik uses the Pascal modules. I currently have Hypex based Ncore NC400 monos with a BAT VK-40 preamp, I would like to upgrade to either the new Hypex Nilai 500 or the Aavik I-280. Very difficult to find comparisons. | |
Best Class D GaNFET Amp Comparison. Who to invite? That's a shame, I was hoping to see a comparison between the Aavik and the Hypex Nilai based amps. I have an option to buy an Aavik I-280, alternatively I will use the latest Hypex modules, I already have Hypex NC-400 based monoblocks. | |
A Black Box to Solve Everything I guess you could try a unity gain tube buffer which is normally used for impedance matching between components, I remember reading somewhere there was even a SS device which emulated the 2nd (and others?) harmonic of a tube and the distortion (ma... | |
Best Class D GaNFET Amp Comparison. Who to invite? Did this event happen? I would very much like to hear the views of the people who attended. Thanks. | |
EverSolo Streamer Thanks Lanx, I have seen those two, I may go with the Pulse Mini and get the external linear PSU too which supposedly elevates it to a different level. | |
EverSolo Streamer I am interested in this but only as a streamer. Has anyone compared it to other streamers, like the Lumin U1/U2 mini or the Holo Red? | |
Aavik - Owners I am in the process of changing my amplification and the I-280 is one of the amplifier I am considering. I currently have Hypex Ncore NC400 based monoblocks with a BAT preamplifier, I wanted to go full Class A but it looks like I will be staying w... | |
