I assumed you "AI'ed" this. There is a variety of hype and listeners experience from various sources. I think the bottom like in it depends on the implementation of both.
Class D - A Fork in the Road
So it seems these newer Class D amps are splitting into two paths. Now I'm not asking which is better, the Purifi Eigentakt, or the GAN models. I am asking is if you can describe the sound of each compared to the other. I understand which one is better is subjective, and opinion based, but a general description would be helpful to make my choice closer to what I want to hear. Thanks.

Agree with @ghdprentice that it’s probably a lot like DACs in that the design/implementation around the DAC chip, ladder, FPGA, etc. matters just as much if not more in how a DAC will ultimately sound, so you’re probably better off reading reviews of individual amps and choose the one that best provides the sound characteristics you’re looking for regardless of the technology. That’s what I’d do anyway FWIW. |
