Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???

This guy knew what was coming a couple of years ago, even though not one amp was yet built using EPC's GaN technology.

The class D AGD Vivace Monoblock amps are a steal at $15k USD per set. I have heard they are the real deal in rendering an authentic 3D soundstage of the correct timbre pace and dynamics.

I believe it, it has the GaN technology.
Probably could have been below $10k if he didn’t use that marketing "tube thing", may have been even better sounding without tube pins in the signal path. Bet there’s a cheaper MkII without the tube thing soon.

Even he said

"Company founder Alberto Guerra admitted that he did it largely for the sake of visual aesthetics. “Otherwise a class-D amp just looks like a box,” he said. The amp uses gallium nitride MOSFET output transistors, which Guerra says switch faster and allow the amp to have a noise floor in the -120 to -130dB range. Power is rated at 200W into 4 ohms."

Here's another press release, this time from Murata Manufacturing Co's (subsidiaries P-Semi) Murata is one of the larger semiconductor manufactures and suppliers.
