New Class D amplifiers

I have no personal agenda, other than to call out over priced, under performing products when I see them. 

more further proof that audio is full of insecure, status seekers who like to spend extravagant amounts of money on products to assuage their frail egos.

@kuribo, well done, after incredible amounts of excruciatingly repetitive posts on almost every Class D related thread that is created on this site, you now make it very clear your agenda and also what you think of us (likely the majority of the posters on these objective forums too) as 'status seekers'  who like to 'spend extravagant amounts of money on products to assuage their frail egos.'

Nice; from my perspective, all the more reason to skip over your posts...

Oh yea, what system do you listen to again?  Just a hint, if you have mandated yourself to save us 'status seekers' from spending too much on Class D amplification, you might want to tell the rest of us what your system consists of and describe to us how it sounds and performs.

Sorry to hear you did not get the assistance you need with your Voyager. BTW, I have one and love it!

Do you know Ric Schultz from Tweak Audio? He does mods, including the Voyager You might contact him about his upgrade. I have his EVS 1200, a ground up design based on dual AS1200 Ice modules. I have owned many many amps over the decades, tube (including servo and OTLs), SS (class A, AB, D) his EVS 1200 is one of the very best amps Ive ever had

hth

Curious if the OP @grantgg has decided on any amp or had a chance to hear any?

@niodari

In fact, i own LSA GaN Voyager for already some months and keep it on a shelf unplugged. I am disappointed not only with its sonic properties but also with a terrible service i experienced.

It has a load variant frequency response as I have said due to its lack of post filter feedback. This problem was solved in class d 20 some years ago. It may be your speakers present a load variance that is causing an issue with the frequency response that you find unpleasant. This is an example of an amp that jumped on the GaN bandwagon and suffers from an issue modern class d designs do not suffer from.

Feel free to read or not read, no one is making you read anything. I can't help it if my posts strike a nerve.

I wouldn't ever even begin to believe that what I prefer in audio components would have any relevance for others. Do your homework and find what works for you- it will prevent you from overpaying for products that under perform for their cost. Unless of course you find some psychic value in paying for certain things that are perhaps not directly related to performance. Best of luck.
