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.

Hello

 

I found that I and my friend prefer the sound of Scaena 3.2 driven by Line Magnetic SET amp fitted with vintage tubes to that of Starkrimson.

 

But I am  curious whether Atma D match the sound of LM 508

 

Are you willing to do side by side comparison between Atma D and LM 508 at my home.

 

I am living near Burlington, WA

 

best

@shkong78  please PM me to discuss further. As per our discussion on another forum, I replaced my LM805 with the Class D’s. So I have done that one ;) but maybe we can figure something out. 

I know that Tommy of Digital Amp Company passed away but I would like to see one of his amps in that competition. I have 15 of his amps channels running my theater. But am wondering how they would stack up against this competition. I could probably bring a pair of his Golden Maraschino amps to Axpona to be sent back after the competition. I would want them back quickly though..

Let me know
