GaN-based Class D power amps
This is a newer technology, some are very using with mosfets , there are a a lot of good digital out there . In my Amp Danish Gato Audio they use Pascal modules, which BTW Jeff Roland uses and make custom analog input,output sections . That meet or beat most Class AB amps out there. Times are changing very fast. https://epc-co.com/epc/GalliumNitride/WhatisGaN.aspx |
There is no GaN-based technology in the Pascal modules used in Rowland amps.No there isn’t. Some of Rowland’s that use Pascal modules, started of from Sangway Class-D modules from China. As can be seen here in the Rowland Contiuum 2, and the same module in these subwoofer plate amps.
