new GAN amplifier

Thanks Pirad. You just confirmed what I already expected that he doesn't know what he is talking about and just parrots what he reads. It would never occur to him that external custom filters could exist Or that the amplifier would filter out the high frequencies themselves rendering the filter use unnecessary.


John Atkinson is just using the tools available to him. He doesn't have an engineering or signal processing background (I expect you don't either). Many of us design custom interfaces to do all sorts of things with our AP units (or build whole devices to achieve what AP products can"t).

🤦‍♂️

There you go, big noting yourself again, putting **** on John Atkinson (Stereophile) is a real good way to get reco.
Go back to shilling that OTL’s can drive Alexia’s, that made more sense.

I’m not the one idolizing a reviewer of an audio magazine reviewer that would be you, and because you just basically parrot what your read you have no clue about what’s possible with this equipment so I don’t know why you were claiming limitations you don't have the experience to claim?? You take one thing read about one accessory and assume that must apply to any time you use AP equipment. That is not the case. It is no different than with epdr which you continuously referenced even though it had absolutely nothing to do with class D amplifiers.

I’m not the one idolizing a reviewer

No but you rubbished him, and that in many eyes makes you a total loser. JA of Stereophile gives more to the audio industry in his little bench testing finger that you ever could.

Like I said if I’m parroting, it’s because of continuing false statements like you make, "that OTL’s can drive Wilson Alexia’s to what they’re capable of doing".

Go back to spruiking and telling OTL tube owners, their amps are great for speaker loads like Wilson Alexia’s ect ect , your good at that kind of false statements.

It is no different than with epdr which you continuously referenced even though it had absolutely nothing to do with class D amplifiers.

And EPDR (impedance + -phase angle) loading that the amp sees is fact, your the only one who says it’s not.

You don't even understand what EPDR is and you just proved it yet again. EPDR is a number exclusively for linear amplifiers to represent equivalent PEAK power dissipation in the output devices. You have brought it up repeatedly in Class D threads. EPDR has no meaning in a Class D amplifier and that you keep bringing it up shows you don't understand EPDR or you don't understand Class D.  I will let you tell us which that is.


I read an article not long ago that said JA has tested over 300 amplifiers. We have ran that many tests in design variations across synthetic loads in a week on automated stations running 24/7. Not faulting JAs work, but putting his expertise in perspective. You don't seem to appreciate just how sophisticated companies and design groups can be set test and measurement. What Stereophile does only scratches the surface.  You idolize that because you don't have experience to put it into perspective.
