GaN-based Class D power amps

Yes we have also tested the Class D Nuprime Evo amplifiers and the new Evo dac and both products tested well above their price points. We are still testing several different Class D amplifiers in 6 different systems and this takes time for obvious reasons. Currently we do not feel that there is any advantage, Class D GaN amplifiers have over other top Class D amplifiers, based on our direct A/B testing.

George,

Measurements mean very little......you must listen, listen and listen some more.....for reality.  Of course, really bad measurements are usually detrimental......however, what constitutes bad measurements?  You would have to listen to determine that.

I think GaNs will make class D better (everything else being the same).  However, we are in the infancy of their use.  Every GaN and every mosfet based class D amp will sound different as everything you do makes a difference sonically.  We have years of perfecting yet to come.

These first GaN amps are just the tip of the iceberg.  We will see relatively inexpensive GaN amps that blow these expensive first offerings away......no doubt.

Cannot wait for Worldwidewholesales to finally tell us their comparisons of all these GaN and non GaN (mosfet) class D amps.

"Hi George,

These will not be available in kits. These amps are complex and expensive to manufacture. We’re hoping to have complete amps ready maybe in about a month. We’re still finishing case design. Tom"
