Affordable GaN FET amp from Peachtree Audio

I'm very intrigued and did sign up.  I'll be able to use my Rose 150B and easily switch between the GaN 1 (DAC less) and the XLR outs (via 9038 Pro).  I have several Class D amps (nCore, Purifi, Mini GaN5) that I can eval.

All my music listening in now streaming, so this should be a fun endeavor...

This is interesting. Thanks for bringing it up!

Does anybody know how these GaN amps behave in terms of distortion vs power? I recall Hypex UcD and Ncores kept distortion very low up to about 50% of nominal power and then increased rapidly until nominal. So I tend to think an Ncore 400 or my UcD400 should be used up to 200W. I wonder if 200W GaN should be used up to 100W to keep distortion very low?

I'm considering a GaN amp in my active system (SET top end, class A/B midrange, UcD midbass) and this would be an interesting option taking s/pdif from the soundcard and bypassing the DAC stage. Further digging on how clocking might affect this stage differently from the paths converted to analog.

Fun times!

Peachtree doing it again! 

I looked at this earlier in the week, while price is attractive it’s certainly not for me. Not even the 2nd or 3rd room system where I have been using a pair of SONOS Play 3 with their Sub for 15 plus years. I find SONOS unbeatable for the sound and ease of use.
