PSAudio M700 mono blocks just over 3K. 350 watts @ 8 ohm, 700 watts @ 4 ohm.
Digital amplifier fans, NAD C298 Purifi Eigentakt
I have a tube amp, an A/B amp and now I'd like to experiment with a D amplifier. I would like something from a big name company for build quality, warranty and reputation. I would also like some heft in terms of watts and the ability to get close to doubling output from 8 to 4 ohms. I like NAD's C298, especially price wise but it seems a little lite on wattage. I know I am not describing exactly what I want with sound signature and so forth, but I'd like some names of amplifiers that might meet the wattage, say 300 or above and be below the $3000 mark. Perhaps such a beast doesn't exist except with the boutique manufacturers? With some suggestions, I can then do a little research to see if it fits the bill.
Thanks in advance!

Here you go. https://www.peachtreeaudio.com/products/gan400 Though you'd be better off looking at Cherry amps and Orchard Audio amps. |
JKJK: Understood on the power requirements...I was thinking if I like the amp a lot, I generally like watts in the event I purchase very inefficient speakers. Probably overkill and I'm not likely to buy such speakers, but I'm sometimes a bit illogical😊
Russ: I'll take a look at the ps audio, thanks! twoleftears: I'll look at those as well. atmosphere: Yes, I've read that class D does not mean digital. I'm not super electronically inclined, but I think if I saw the waveform going to the speaker, it would be a regular old sign wave like A/B, tube etal. At least I think so🤔 What I find kind of intriguing is the low energy consumption, small footprint and the alleged maturing of the technology with regard to sound quality. |
