Is D for Dry? Class D...

AGD Audion is the best amp, regardless of class or price, I have ever heard.  Class D using a patented galium nitride module that, unlike other GAN based amps, uses a module designed specifically for audio. All others use GAN used in lidar or battery chargers.
Hearing detail, attack and decay produces a sound in which I hear, for the first time, musician’s phrasing. The most subtle and most profound. Music is composed of phrases tied together. The way in which singers and instrumentalists beginning and end of a phrase and the nuances of inflection give a humanity to the sound before unheard. The result is that the AGDs make even old, poor, scratchy LPs great. So many albums that I just didn’t want to listen I now look forward to. Because of AGD Audions, my listening experience has literally transformed. Now listening to Louis and Ella is revelatory.
All the little things that Louis does with his voice. And I always liked Ella. But now I clearly hear why she was so great. 

You can’t cheap out on your amplifier. You just can’t do it. Class D is an audio company attempting to sell product that’s nearly all profit. Class A. Now that’s an amplifier. If it doesn’t heat you out of your room it’s not worth your time.

Although we've been building class A amplifiers for the last 46 years, this statement is clearly false. Its worth your time if it sounds right, not on how hot it does or does not get.

Using tube gear is like using a distortion pedal in an electric guitar setup. They make tons of cool effects to choose from, and they’re all useful in creating music and new sounds. But they have zero relation to accurate reproduction of a source signal. Thinking otherwise is mental masturbation.

@dougeyjones Spoken like a true neophyte. Get out and listen to some good tube gear in a tube friendly system. Your portrayal couldn't be further from the truth.

I've got no dog in the fight when it comes to Class D, so I'm not going to bash something I have no experience with, nor do I care to have any experience with Class D. But don't paint with such a broad brush about a technology that is arguably for many the most engaging means of reproducing music. You don't like it? Fine. But let's keep things in perspective, shall we?

Good to hear that you have experienced what i have with the AGD Audions. Regardless of class they are some of the best amps i have heard period. Have have just sold my Pass XA25 and Wavac 300B there was no point in keeping them, the AGD`s do what they could do and more.
