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

I heard Merrill amps at Capital Audiofest a couple years back running a pair of German Physiks speakers. Model may have been Veritas but not sure.
The sound was crisp neutral detailed and top notch all around. The amps seemed to drive the speakers pretty effortlessly. Nothing to object to, very much what I was expecting. The sound was much like a pair of well set up Quad Electrostats or MLs, except the GP speakers are omnidirectional and not ES and the bass was all there but well integrated into the overall Omni sound presentation.


It was not unlike what I hear with the Bel Canto Class D amps I use with my Ohm Walsh speakers , but were more pricey at the time as I recall. Same true of the GP speakers.

Hey mapman,

     Did they create a good soundstage image with stable and solid images?

Thanx,

Yes. 

Looking to replace a first gen Wyred4sound ST-500. Need a stereo amp due to space limitations. Considering used Merrill Taranis. Can anyone who's heard both tell me what kind of upgrade I can expect? I'm running an exogal comet plus through a BHK pre to Ohm 5000 speakers. Thanks. 

Anyone heard the ELAC Class Ds?
