A few have spoken to how amazing the Mola Mola Kaluga is. Dylan (owner of Buckeye amps) said his Class D and the Kaluga sound identical. Both are true to source with no coloration of its own.
That's what he said. I take 0 credit for all of this.
What is your favorite Class D amp?
Moving to a new home with a smaller dedicated listening room has caused me to rethink my entire system. I have always been a fan of EL34 tube amps and presently have a Primaluna HP (4 tubes per channel), but the size and heat make this a bit more difficult in my new set up. So I have been thinking about going with a smaller, less hot class D amp. But being a tube guy, I have never seriously looked into or listen to these amps.
so what is your favorite class D amp? New or used, in the 5k range, but could go up to 10k. Preamp is a Conrad Johnson ET-7. Speaker will be in the monitor/mini-monitor class (so I don’t need high power for a smallish room) but have not made my final decision on speakers as the amp/speaker synergy makes this kind of a joint decision.
I purposely asked for “favorite” to be a bit more open in your relies.
thanks, Bill

@mglik Thanks for sharing your experience in comparing the Audion and Atmasphere. For clarification, which model of the Audion did you try? I hear the mk3 is quite a bit better than the mk2 especially in the treble department. |
