I suggest the Orchard Audio GaN amplifier that measured very well, better than Peachtree and LSA Voyager .
GaN amps: Peachtree or LSA Voyager?
Peachtree 400 and LSA Voyager GaN amps: Does anyone have direct experience with both of these amps? Can you comment on any differences that might exist in sound? I know the internals are supposed to be the same but even if that is true implementation can make a difference. Both are highly regarded by those who own them.
Might also be helpful if you listed the rest of your system (Pre and speakers).
My current system is: Bricasti M3 DAC; Rogue RP-7 (NOS) pre; Bel Canto Ref600M amps; Fyne F1-8 speakers.
Thanks in advance!

@ricevs i have already noted that i love your posts. And I am liking them now even more. You gave a most difficult task - to stop ego. If I am too weak to do so, at least i can admire your belief. ...And look at the last post suggesting again Orchard Audio GaN amp, once I am to order the Voyager (am I taking a correct decision?) . I have no idea how either of the two amps sound, and I don't completely trust measurements (the nature is more complex than classical (non-quantum) physics can describe). Distortion is no good but perhaps is unavoidable for more complete and realistic sound reproduction? How these two amps sound is more important for me, and i don't have that information. And one is on sale, the others are not. |
I bought the Benchmark AHB2 amplifier. Don't know yet when I will receive it. My thinking is there is a return period; it is well regarded so if I decide to sell after the return period I should have no trouble; I had their LA-4 pre for a while and it was a very good piece; I am hoping my tube preamp will keep the sound from being dry. Thanks everyone for your opinion. |
It has nothing to do with ego, the amp is what it is and the load dependent frequency response is a simple fact. |
