| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Thanks @mapman for the reply. Just placed an order to try the stereo version you linked. The fact you’ve heard AGD and others gives a good vote of confidence for the class d audio amps. | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? @hbarrel Thanks for the response and that’s good to know they don’t take long to settle in. I got sucked in to the soundstage depth from the little Douk A5 amp with sparkos opamps and when I tried the SMSL GaN amp the detail and focus was much im... | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Thanks lak, somehow I missed that mapman owns the class d audio amps. Hi @mapman, do you own the stereo or monoblock amps from class d audio? How do you describe the soundstage? Thanks for any feedback. | |
| What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today? Hi @lak , do you know someone with the class d audio GaN amps that has shared their impressions? I’m interested to know if they’re good at soundstage depth and layering. I recently got an SMSL pa-x GaN amp and while it’s great at detail retrieval ... | |
| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? @pindac I just added another set of ETI rca connectors to my second set of interconnects and it’s pretty incredible the amount of information they let thru compared to the Furutech 102r NCF connectors they replace. And they’re cheaper than the NC... | |
| HAVE CABLES EVER TAKEN YOUR SYSTEM FROM SOUNDING JUST OK TO SOUNDING GREAT? Experiences ? I’ve had some good cables recently take things up a notch but it wasn’t until I changed connectors that I was pretty wowed. ETI Research banana, spade, and now rca plugs have all allowed more information to come through and taken out some gritty o... | |
| Preamp Options under $3500 @helomech Wow, thanks for sharing! | |
| Preamp Options under $3500 @helomech I like hearing stories like this. Can you share what other preamps you had that you ultimately preferred the A70 pro to? | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" I sent my SDFB back to get reprogrammed to 5a after finding out my amp does not use a 4a slo blo. Apparently the manual was wrong but my laziness was not in vain as I recently acquired an integrated amp that also uses 5a so it’ll be a win win. Thi... | |
| My Snubway and Main Stream Master Class Combo Review Hey ozzy, in my moving the subway/main stream around I did find it better suited at my psm156 next to my amp and dac. More clean and detailed in that location than anywhere else. I have a second set of snubway/main stream that if I put them around... | |
| Xangsane Cryo OCC vs Sterling Silver XLRs I ended up buying 2m of the Xangsane sp-9003ag cabling to make some interconnects with a set of Furutech 102 NCF rca plugs I got that I was going to use with another cable but since they don’t use solder I figured I’d try them with the xangsane. ... | |
| The Belles Aria Signature Integrated Amplifier Ok good to know, thanks. I did send them a message but haven’t heard back yet. I see this on their site on the separate preamp page so was just wondering if everything is the same, such as gain, on the preamp section of the integrated. “Part of a... | |
| The Belles Aria Signature Integrated Amplifier Trying to find if anybody has used the Aria integrated as a preamp going into a separate amp. I like the flexibility the Aria has but haven’t come across anyone utilizing this feature. Does the preamp section of the integrated perform the same as ... | |
| Veritas Cables a new brand that I found Anybody got an update on the Veritas usb cables in their system. I’ve had a Stealth cable for quite a while at 1m length and could use a longer cable so looking at alternatives. | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" I’ve had the SDFB for a few weeks and the graphene sluggo has been in place for over a week now and it does feel like I got a new amp. I thought I knew what “better separation of instruments” meant before but this box and sluggo has really shown m... |
