GaN based SU-R1000 Technics Integrated Class-D, review by TAS

It’s sad, he’s the biggest offender of what he accuses others of doing. And the lack of comprehension... well that’s a whole other story.

I’ll state it once again, because you don’t comprehend!

"There is no way on the AGD that those tube pins can possibly take 32A of current let alone 50A!!! If they do, then burnout trouble to both pins and socket connections will happen eventually"

Then the socket and tube will have to be changed, and the even bigger trouble is guess what!! the GaN amp module is inside the tube!!!!
Big bucks for that service work. For his sake hope it doesn’t happen in the warranty period, for owners hope it does.

Class D sucks!! There's no way an amp can draw 7 watts at the wall and produce 100W at the speaker! You are all deluded into thinking this stuff works.

- Me, cherry picking some random specification and then acting as if it actually mattered.

I’m no EE, but I thought we can draw up to 1800 watts from the outlet. Are power supplies *that* wasteful ?

With all due respect to Mr Cordesman’s review, the man is 82. When I’m 82 I wouldn’t expect people to believe everything I say about sound quality

Unless he's a robust 82. They just can't hear above 15kHz, but maybe it's not even this high.
