digital Amp. Going green


Any thing out there between $3000 to $5000 in the digital amp arena that has altered your desire for using tube base amplification?

Kabir,

I cannot recommend these highly enough -- they are stunning performers:

I own the Red Wine Audio 30.2 and love it. It will change your opinion of what a digital amp is. It outclasses them all, except if you need more power, but that will sacrifice the sound. It sounds more seductive and tube-like and many tube amps I"ve owned but with bass definition and dynamics of a top notch SS amp.
The RWA amps run on high current sla battery power. I heard the 70.2s and when I get the funds, they will be my next purchase along with the Isabella preamp that RWA is releasing soon. If you cant tell, I'm a very happy camper with RWA.

As for going green, maybe they can be charged via a solar panel? Vinnie Rossi at RWA might be able to make it happen.

Good luck,
Jeff
Kabir, I am running Gallo Ref. 3.1s. I mentioned this on another thread here on agon --

RWA also has a forum on audiocircle and i've seen some good feedback from more of us Gallo owners, such as this --

As good as the 30.2 is the 70.2s are even better with the Gallo. You can't go wrong,and RWA offers a 30-day so you'll be able to find out if htey are right for you wihtout taking a loss.

Cheers, Jeff
