@drhamp ,
The Cherrys are gone for obvious reasons
It's not that obvious...
New Class D amplifiers
Hello. I'm very interested in getting your opinion on the newer Class D amplifiers. There has been a couple of very positive reviews (by Guttenberg) of the Bel Canto C6i and NAD M23. These, and perhaps some others are offering new technology that significantly lower the class D noise level and other drawbacks.
I currently use a Class A amp, Pass Labs INT-25 (with Dynaudio Heritage Special speakers) which has a wonderful sound. But I am transitioning to another location, and due to using Roon primarily I find that this system stays on most of the day. Due to heat and power usage of Class A amplifiers, I'm interested in translating to Class D if I find something comparable.

I do not understand what you are talking about. In my area the voltage swing around 122 v. But I had never noticed any problem with Starkrimson Ultra for 8 days.
I can not tell which of Atma, Audion, Starkrimson will work better with my speaker yet.
But if you are curious about Class D amp, just be in line for tour of Starkrimson. If there are local dealer of Audion, Atma, I will be happy to do home audition for 2-3 days, but no dealer of them aroung Seattle area.

@jcarcopo I don’t quite understand your post. What happened with your Ultra? I used the Ultra for 2 weeks and had zero issues. I thought it was a great sounding amp. It was not the dual mono version, though, but there are at least a couple of dual mono owners on another forum that are very happy with their amps. Are you saying that you can’t just plug it into the wall and use it? I’ve also exchanged a few emails with Leo and he was pretty responsive and helpful, so kind of surprised at your comments. |
