NUPRIME EVOLUTION ONE-BEST CLASS D AMP ON THE MARKET

Can't stop laughing at the "shill" comments since you ignore why I focused on Nuprime in the first place. I could give a rat's butt about Nuprime. It has nothing to do with the name or the company whatsoever.
My only interest is Demian Martin. If I found out that Demian was on the design team for the SE-R1, I would be all over that amp like stink on a monkey. As many are aware, Demian is the number circuit designer in the country given his reputation back in the 80's and early 90's for designing the top solid state Class A  Amps and Preamps. Just one on the many innovations that Demian developed, that was a first in the industry, is the circuit board material used in the Spectral amps and Preamps that Spectral has an exclusive, due to their contract with Dupont. That yellow/gold material is polysulphone which is known for having the lowest noise levels against any other circuit board material outside of solid gold.
I have been aware of GaN transistors for five years since at that time I posted a comment on a thread on Gon back then, my comment was, "Whoever comes out with a transistor that has very high heat resistance is when tubes will be a thing of the past ", then further searching on the web I came across a GaN article. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the GaN transistors were developed around 2013. The fact that they switch ten times faster then Mosfets is remarkable. Just because Technics implements the GaN in the SE-R1 doesn't mean the automatic result is
world class state of the art sound. I have spent some time on YouTube listening to the piece and the R-1 through my Altec Lansing processor and my Koss Pro AA  headphones, and came to the same conclusion as the Audiophile's on Audioshark who listened to the amps at the shows. The amp sound is on the colored side, warm, relaxed but does not have the dynamics of the best solid state Class A amps on the market. If one is not concerned about weight or whether an amp is Class D or A/AB and your going to invest a whopping $17K, You would be better off buying a Spectral, Luxman, or Accuphase amplifier that would blow the SE-R1 right out the window.

IME, George likes to troll threads about class D- and also feels that Technics is the only game in town due to switching speed, as you've seen.

No your the troll, countering me with BS at every turn, because you have your own Class-D coming out and are in total product protection mode.
 As you know your going to be behind the eight ball with your lower switching speed if you use it, because of this sort of phase shift it will have way down into the audio band.  https://ibb.co/NFkC3Th 

atmasphere..I appreciate your positive post. Of course I was wrong to make that statement which was based on the Totally Wired review where the reviewer states'.... "the higher 750mhz switching sets a benchmark for Class D.." surprised he didn't do his homework. You mention " digital still continues to improve " which puzzles me. Class D r&d started back in 1958 then in the early 60's Sinclairs' Class D amps would blow up due to unstable switching, then as we know Spectron came out with a Class D amp in 1974 that made its way to CES with positive results. Class D amps are pure analog amps, but would be considered digital if the incoming signal routes to a DAC to convert the signal, then that would be a digital amplifier. Since D is just a category as Class A, AB, H, and G.

Wow! George is back. I thought he left town. Very disrespectful to atmasphere. During the seventeen years as a member, I have never come across a member like you with such a childish temper.
