Best Class D GaNFET Amp Comparison. Who to invite?
The time has come to put to the people a listening test of some of the better
current "Contenders" in the race for Best Class D GaNFET Sound.
The existing media can not manage such an undertaking for many reasons.
This event will help consumers decide which products best meet their needs.
I have not heard all the players but will suggest these names for inclusion in this comparison.
1. Mola Mola
2. Atmasphere
3. AGD
4. Bel Canto
5. NAD
6. ?
7. ?
8. ?
Finale Aavik vs winner of above
Event will be held either in Seattle or the Bay Area.
We can support about three more brands in this comparison.
It will be setup as an A/B audience listening event
comparison starting with the two lowest MSRP products.
After the seven A/B comparisons one amp would emerge as the audience favorite.
This winner would then go head to head with the Aavik in the 8th round.
I will plan this for a July-August 2023 event open to the public.
I now open this to further discussion, ideas and suggestions for the last three slots.
@yyzsantabarbara Is the GAN1 better than the Benchmark amp/Pre? Better than the Coda16? How can it sound better than a system with an expensive DAC? Thanks |
The suits ought to learn a thing or two from Ric, but they won’t bother listening to the grassroots from their high towers. Well done sir. 😀 |
@yyzsantabarbara Thank you for the update. This is big Knowing that you are very demanding with regard to sound quality. How would you describe the change in the GAN1 sound before/after modding? |
