CLASS D MONO AMPS buy ATMASPHERE MUSIC SYSTEMS

@ Ric

Please go away...your next post will let us all know that you have already modded an unreleased amp from Ralph. Everything is better...peace on Mars

The GaN stuff is pretty good. I have a Class D Audio for a secondary system and it comes pretty close my Purifi’s (Mivera). Built many DIY Hypex over the years (UcD, nCore).

BTW - Congrats Ralph. May need to try one (or two)....

I have been watching for this, half hoping that Ralph would conclude his class D effort couldn't play in the same league with hist tube OTLs, and half hoping that he was able to pull this off, thus giving us Atma-Sphere fans a wider selection of compatible speakers. 

I don't know how many times I've sworn I would never move on from my M-60's.   Now, maybe, I should be thinking about this.

Congratulations Ralph.

Every single person (including me) is necessary in this universe. No one needs to go away. If you do not like what I say.......remember.....when you point a finger at someone.....3 are pointing back at you.....it is all projection. What I try to project is love and respect towards everyone.....because I know that everyone is divine....worthy and deserving.

I doubt anyone would send me a $5400 amp to mod.....but I am open to it. Everything can be improved.

By the way, the Mytek Gan amps are still delayed....they have a 200 watt a channel $6K amp that may come out soon......so more things to try. It never ends.

I hope Ralph can crank out these babies soon so a lot of people can get great sound for not a fortune. Blessings to all.  Peace on Earth and especially in your heart.  Love is what we all came here for.  You create it anytime you like....you are in control.

This cat’s been out of the bag for a while. I think there’s been talk of it here for about a year at least.

Yep, Ralph himself has causally mentioned he was working on such.

100 watts is just not enough for some speaker systems. I would go at least 300/600/1000 watts

No need to if the amp has 4 ohm taps. And even it didn’t, if the speaker is rated at 4 ohms, you gotta a banger. Not to mention if you have efficient speakers 100 watts is plenty.

About class D amplifier current? I need to study up on that...How does class D amplifier current work? Is it dissimilar to class A and AB? Anyone?

200 watts into 4 will not drive Apogee speakers, Magnepans to great volume, various Wilson, etc. speakers.  There are no ohm taps on a transistor amp.  The output impedance on Ralphs amp is low......but the voltage/current it limited.  Works the same on class d and class A or A/B.  Purifi has a new module about to be released that has 40 amps of current instead of the 26 for its current model.  This will make it double from 250 watts at 8 ohm to 500 at 4 ohm and even puts out 900 watts into 2 ohms......now that will drive more speakers, for sure.  I am sure Ralph will do something similar.  Myself.....100 watts is plenty.  But I have easy to drive speakers.
