@ yyzsantabarbara I sold my Coda #16 amp last year.  My modded LSA Voyager GAN amp is worth a lot more to me than I could ever get for it by selling it.  Class D has come a long damn ways.  I suspect that the gan fet is a chunk of this progress as...

Do PS Audio BHK 300 monoblock amps require a 20 amp line?  If not require one would the sound better with one? Or is a 15 amp line sufficient?

@ wspohn at this moment I have my Ric-modded LSA Voyager GAN amplifier inserted in my reference system.  It sounds quite good actually.

Thanks @dhungana ​​​​@veerossi   
Why do some amplifiers throw a bigger soundstage than others?
I must admit that it is fun imagining my large deep soundstage emanating from my reference system. So damn good that I suspect it ain’t real - its a repeating simulation.

Have there been many changes to the PS Audio BHK 300 monoblock amplifiers over the past few years?

@curiousjim how would u describe your initial impression of the sonic signature of the bhk 300 monoblocks? @timlub Thanks for the amp recommendation.  I have some old modded Ampzilla amps in my exercise room audio system that are damn good.

@audphile1 I am going to get the JC1 repaired. You are correct. I have too much money sunk into them and the mods to just walk away from them. They also sound stunningly good. Just a good excuse to pick up another amp for my rotation and/or backup.
