Class D Amplification Announcement
@mapman  I am going based on solid user recommendations. What other choices in GaN amplifications are available? Will certainly be interested to know.  
Class D Amplification Announcement
@pehare  That is some recommendation now - replacing tube amp with the Class D amp. Good to know that Ralph's Class D amps sound amazing. I trust as genuine - because this comes from a member who has been on this site long enough and posts regul...

Help with iFi Zen Stream and mconnect HD

Thank you all so much :) For the comments or confusion? 😁
