| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello aolmrd1241, I now have most of the pieces of the eval post.... Need to stitch them together, remove burrs, integrate a few more bits of technical information, and audible observations, and then I will post to Audiogon.G. and | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello Recevs, how dare you believing in your own class D creations ;) You should instead prostrate yourself and squirm in shhame, while grovelling and begging undeserved forgiveness from the righteous paperholic and Martin colloms-fearing audio mo... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification So, George, are you enjoying the music from the the Technics amp in your system? Does it make good music? Or is this still pure oscilloscopic voyeurism that you foisting on us all?G. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification There goes George with his dark conspiracies and kabalas... Fascinating stuff really.... Except that blind men -- e.g. your truly -- use their ears, and he apparently does not.... Perhaps a deaf audiophile?! :) | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Yep George, 'tis all one dark ominous conspiracy at the expense of brave audiophiles worldwide... There are rumors of a mysterious kabala of notorious class D mongers to undermine the Faith of righteous audiophrenes. Could even be the "deep HiFi S... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification George, Merrill is not so much interested in achieving high switching frequencies. He seems to be using GaN to reduce dead states.BTW, here is the latest Merrill newsletter, where he talks about the Element 116, which he will sell for about $22K. ... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello George, as far as I know there were no "evaluation boards" of any kind in the Merrill Element 118 prototype. The circuit is entirely designed/implemented by Merrill from the ground up using discrete components, including the in-circuit appli... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello Tweak1, are you referring to amps designed around Gallium Nitride transistors? I have had a mono amp in my system designed around Gallium Nitride (GaN) transistors for just a few days last spring. It was a still incomplete but lovely proto... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Actually I have owned Class D and class A/B amps....Aragon 4008 Mk.2 stereo A/B -- Nice but limited performer.Rowland 7M balanced high bias mono class A/B -- Wonderful golden tone... Absolutely captivating, with huge sound stage and power reserve.... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello Bo1972, you made your point abundantly and eloquently.... We get it... No need to beat a dead horse. Please rest your case... Or start your own thread.Regards, G. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello 213, I am completely with you on the subject of class A and A/B ill-conceived conjectures of their imminent demise... There are amazingly wonderful amplifiers from all classes and topologies.While I remain an unapologetic fan of the Rowland ... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Thank you 213runnin for that delightful bit of purple prose. I should like to counter with my favorite -- if admittedly pessimistic -- quote from our own Rodman99999... "Just don't fall into the category of those whose minds, like concrete, are ... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello @uberwaltz, according to the verbal reports I have heard from earwitnesses at shows, Daemon sounds like those aforementioned dreams as well *Grins!*G. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Ah yes, the Rowland Daemon superintegrated.... Hope to have the opportunity of having one in my system some day and scribble about it... Meantime, for some info on Daemon, here is its page:https://www.jeffrowlandgroup.com/daemon/Saluti, G. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Hello @pokey77... Yep, looks like I have missed this happily brawling "class struggle" all together *Grins!* Or perhaps this a "religious" argument?! Like in.... How many comparators can dance on the head of a pin? Or is this the eternal fairy... |
