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

Im excited about the PS kit. The amps are ICE POWER tech. The input is proprietary, but the Gaincell is a volume module based on a B & O design. There are a number of in depth reviews on the net. I asked Paul McGowan if they are dabbling with GaN. I don’t think he knows what the digital department is up to in R & D though. I also asked him abut an external PS for the preamp, as he often does that, but he said that it wasn't needed. Hmmmm.Time will tell

What I am most excited about is I finally scored an AA power supply for the dac/pre, and it's a beast. They are hard to come by as production has stopped on the AA kit. I will have it Friday. No sure whether the PS kit will get here then too

     I read the Stereophile review on the PS 700Ms and it was very positive.  The review was from Jan./2018 and the reviewer had just previously reviewed the AA DPA-1Ms.  
     He thought the PS 700Ms were superior and even compared them to being somewhat similar in sound quality to the Theta Prometheus mono block class Ds that go for $12k/pr, saying they were a bargain at about$3k/pr and you said you bought yours for even less.
     He also thought they performed best when separated on isolation stands and not stacked on top of each other.   Here's the link:

     If they sound as good as they look, these amps should sound very good.

Enjoy,

Thanks Tim. Yeah, his review motivated me. Took a couple months to find a silver set at a price I could flip without much out of pocket, but it sounds like they might stay, so...

I know I repeat myself but the AA sounds fantastic, especially since making the 2 cable changes

And yes they will be on separate shelves

After having the PS Audio Gain Cell DAC/preamp and M700s in my system for the past two months, I can still say that I look forward to listening to them everyday. Break in took at least 200 hours but they are now very sweet and powerful, and more than any other amp set up I've had, the soundstage is very deep. This allows instruments and voices to occupy their own space. Separation has never been better. My current hungry Thiel 2.4s sing beautfully with these amps. The pre is connected to the power amps with balanced cable.

Enjoy your PS Audio system! I am sure you will like it!
