Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
Ralph, When will your digital amp be available? We don’t need no stinkin DACs, preamps and normal feedback amps!....he he. And the fact that we can use digital xovers and equalitzaion without extra DACs and amps is incredible....way more pure and ...

When you do not know that EVERYTHING makes a difference then you concentrate on the only things you can see/know. 24/192 might sound a little better than 24/96 into the amp.......but there are so many things that make WAY more difference than that... 
Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
First, very rough draft.....way more to come.....please feel free to contact me about anything that might be added, helpful or incorrect.  This link is going to be sent to reviewers, manufacturers and posted on forums all over the world.....I am s...

Yes, lots of used GaN350s out there.  Looks like LSA has discontinued it and are probably working up an amp based on the much better sounding digital boards from EAS (if you talk to EAS they will tell you that the digital boards are more transpare...

Yup, you will have to use a converter.....usb to coax. Here is one of many: https://www.sonore.us/ultraDigital.html There will be units with multiple inputs, including usb input, volume control built in, xover/equalizer built in and multichannel... 
Best DACs under $7,000.00
Do not ever trust the word of someone you do not know personally....including me. Please read the GaN 1 thread for the 7 current reviews of the amp and you will see this exploding soon. The only hands on that is important is your hand......Try one...

Very good.  How will you be getting the digital signal to the coax input on the GaN 1 and how are you controlling the volume?.....ie. what is your signal path before the GaN1? You could bi-amp and make your own speaker that might sound better tha... 
Best DACs under $7,000.00
I do have an agenda. I want everyone to be happy and have the best stereo they can at the cheapest price. I have enthusiasm......comes for the greek....meaning: "be inspired or possessed by a god" God animates us.....wants us to live our life wi... 
Best DACs under $7,000.00
STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You no longer need a DAC....the best DAC is NO DAC. Please read the Peachtree Gan 1 beta thread on the amplifier board. A guy had a Holo May KTE and a Holo Serene preamp and the Kinki labs B7 monos with great cables in ... 
Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll
WFS probably has the EAS GaN digital amp boards and is testing them. Digital amps are the future....all DACs, preamps, and normal amps are now officially history.....he he. If you play CDs only, the best sound will be to burn the CD (with treatmen... 
Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll
Digital GaN amps are another step up in sonic purity from class A, class A/B and normal Class D (including GaNs). NO DAC, NO PREAMP, NO ANALOG INTERCONNECTS, NO FEEDBACK, NO HEAT.......just super sound. The only one available right now that makes ... 
Hifi Rose RA180
The Kef LS60 is great for the money.  However, uses ordinary DACs and amps.  If they used digital amps inside it would sound way, way better.  
Hifi Rose RA180
It is $7000 and available everywhere.  You still need a DAC or DAC/streamer.  The Peachtree Gan 1 is $1400 and all you need is a $400 IFI Zen Streamer and you probably have sound quality in the same league (or better)....than using the RS150B with... 
New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
You can have the best drivers in the world......but if the jacks, wires and xover parts are not the best possible then you will never hear the transparency of what the drivers can do (of course, MDF even 2 inches thick on the front is not really a... 
Peachtree GaN 1 Beta
You need a streamer with a built in volume control......like the $400 IFI Zen Streamer (a linear power supply option will help sound).  You use wireless or ethernet to stream and you can also use a usb stick/hard drive to play files.  So, you woul...
