I found @nickintroy’s evaluation surprising as I have a number of customers that replaced their H390s with the Ultras.
@blisshifi
The configuration that he used was a V2 with a single power supply and upgraded capacitance ($3050 MSRP)
What are the best GaN Amplifiers available today?
There have been a number of threads discussing the wonder of GaN and some of the individual amplifiers that have caught peoples attention, including those from AGD, Atma-Sphere, Peachtree, LSA, etc. Has anyone done a shootout against two or more GaN amps? If so, which did you prefer, and why? And on what speakers?
Also, of the one you preferred, do you prefer it over every other amplifier you’ve ever heard? If not, what non-GaN amp do you enjoy more?

Thanks @orchardaudio. I submitted an inquiry through your contact form yesterday, FYI. |
@blisshifi I send you a PM. |
@mbmi What is the sound of these 2 that make it the best. I only know the T+A HV amps (and stack). Slightly warm sound but my ears like my CODA #16 more. I would assume the T+A Class D Purifi based amp is not at the same level as the T+A HV amps. I never heard the AAVIK. |
@blisshifi looks like T+A makes those class D M200 amps in monoblocks and they sell for $10k. I'm going for Atma-sphere's class D first, but these t+a have peaked my interest to compare them for sure. |
