Class-D Audio USA have just released their new GaN amp at the CES


Class-D Audio USA have finally shown their GaN based Class-D at the CES, anyone see/hear it?
It should be well priced.
Wonder if they went the extra yards/cost for the higher 1.5mhz switching frequency, like the mighty Technics SE-R1.

Hi George,
Yes, our new GaN amp was just at the CES show a few weeks ago, and was a big success. If you email me tomorrow and remind me, I can provide more information... I’ll try to remember to email when I get to work, but sometimes I get pulled many directions when I get there.

Rick Becker, of Enjoythemusic.com just posted a review of the Audion GaNTube Monoblocks and liked them so much he bought the review pair.  Interesting read.
15k? Is it too much to ask the power cord should be away from the switch for that price?

Well they are compact for 100w/ch, shiny and kinda look like a tube amp. That will probably help convert some tube amp owners that might not otherwise.

I’m sure they sound very good.







Ah I found the price at the bottom of the article. Starting at ~7k. Much better.

Gotta admit though the reviewer lost some credibility with me when he injected the Synergistic Orange Fuses that coincidentally are advertised on the sites main page.


Just saying......
