Class D amps that are superior to all or most?


Recently, I have heard about some Class D amps that may be close to the best there is regardless of class. Certainly, this technology has been in development for decades. The main issue has always been the switching power supply. In this regard, I have taken notice of AGD. They have created a whole new power supply that “switches” at a frequency 100 times the normal silicon based MOSFET. The designer uses a gallium nitride based PS. Interesting, it is enclosed in the KT88 glass envelope that sits on top of his amps. I am aware of two more pricey amps that seem to be also at the top- the Solution and the Merrill. There must be others that compete for the title. After my thread, “Is there a SS amp that can satisfy a SET guy?”, I am still on the quest.
Don’t want to spend $50K!

Both nice looking.

How about a Class D amp with both a tube and a meter? Hubba hubba!

The Legacy amp is interesting in that it is 4 channel and specs say only slightly more power into 4 ohm than 8....not sure what to make of that.
I am very tempted to try the new Class D Audio GaN based stereo class D amp for only $700. It’s gotta be worth that. My gut says probably a lot more.

If anyone has bought and heard one of those, please report here ASAP!  Thanks.
My D-sonic pascal-module amp will be nice to use in summer, sounds excellent on movies, but its sound quality isn’t comparable to a 16-tube Mesa Baron for music.  Less trouble, though.
