I am still amazed by Coda 16 stats! 3000 watt toroid, 280,000 uf PSU capacitance. For an amp of its size its truly amazing. I wonder if they can make a mono version for harder to drive speakers that has more power? Something to compete with gryphon mephisto or big pass XA200.8?
Review on Coda Technologies 16 Amplifier went live today
Just wanted to inform the individuals that have shown interest in reading the full review on Stereo Times website, not just the comments on the on-going thread about the 16 amplifier, that it was posted this morning. It gets into the details why this is a spectacular piece regarding performance, build quality, and it's very reasonable price for what you get for your money.

I don't have a No. 16, but I did pick up (at a fantastic deal) what may be described as a 15.5+
which has the same lower noise input transistors , circuit, and power supply of the No. 16, but not the increased power supply capacitance. It's easily the best amp I've ever heard - dynamic, dead quiet, extremely fast and detailed, very liquid, and, as a musician, everything sounds correct. The dead silent sound floor and incredible dynamics can take the listening experience from small and intimate to immensely powerful and large with superb sound quality and accuracy across that range. I currently have a pair of fully upgraded Tekton Pendragon's (I also got at a fantastic deal), but I really hope to pickup Moab's before year end. |
