Another review that tells us very little. He liked it, that is for sure. However, he did not compare the $10K Technics to his $26K Pass mono amps or any other amp or integrated amp. So, what do we know?: It sounds better via digital in than analog in using a Manhattan II that uses an ESS dac chip and ordinary op amps. Whoopie! I could have told you that it would sound better than a decent DAC and interconnect via analog before even listening. However, how does the analog input sound driven by a serious DAC.....say the MSB select or the big DCS Vivaldi? How does the analog input compare with a Pass or other $10K+ amp? We will have to wait and see. For sure, there is a lot of cool technology here in this digital integrated amp. The LAPC feature cannot be done without it being a digital integrated amp. The future looks good. This really cannot be compared to a normal class D amp as there is so much more going on here. We will have to wait for someone else to more fully review this product. Some serious A/Bs are necessary. |
