I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong
GeorgeYou have made your position on Class D perfectly clear. It would be nice if you would take a time out from the back and forth, especially since you haven't actually heard the newest offeringsBottom line is, currently GaN offerings are quite ... 
Anyone have experience with the new ELAC DDP-2?
boxer, +1. I can't see replacing my DDP-1/PS 5 anytime soonHard to imagine the goodness that the PS 5 adds could be crammed into the DDP-2, unless PM was able to include a HQ SMPS. I replaced the OEM SMPS in my Oppo 105 with a LPM to excellent affect

George, you continually exhibit selective memory. Your ad nauseum mantra, makes me wonder WHY you persist? WE ALL GET IT: you’re not a fan. Neither are you ’converting any of us, so what’s your point? Oh, and FYI, ALL genres of amps have Achilles ...

How good is an Oppo BDP-83 as a transport? To be used with Denafrips Ares DAC
Machina Dynamica's New Dark Matter worked wonders in my Oppo 105.Definitely worth the small amount of money it costs 
Directional cables - what does that really mean?
As I understand it, wire is pulled through a specific size thingy (can't think f the name) the outer diameter tends to fold back creating measurable resistance necessitating a direction of least resistance to be determined   
Which new amp to get?
I have a EVS 1200 on order, should ship soon. Dual mono 600wpc newest IceEdge class D a mere $2200, though I expect that to jump soonoh 30 day money back including return shipping How can you lose? 
Why a separate DAC?
OCG HiFi (you tube channel) just compared 15 different DACs from $850- 23k+ I am currently using a Audio Alchemy DDP-1 (preamp/dac) + AS 5 (outboard power supply) It's a freakin bargain. No loner available new as AA introduced a new line, but I ha...

GeorgeI too am a fan of certain class D amps, with plenty I haven’t heard. Ive owned quite few SS amps from tube/ss hybrids to AB to the class A Kinergetics KBA 75, which to this day was the best amp Ive heard here, My system then consisted of Gen... 
Cambridge Audio CD Player Has Died
My personal view on this is to buy a nice cd player that has the necessary outs to use as a transport. Then, should the dac fail, or if you want to upgrade the dac you can play cds while you shop aroundI said this before the Marantz HD CD 1 is a r...

after reading George's reply to whomever wrote about GaN switching speeds:"This is so correct, but so far it seems that only one has utilized this ability to take the higher switching speed up to 1.5mHz available with GaN (2.5 x higher than presen... 
Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other???
This morning it occurred to me to experiment with where my amp is plugged in. I know Ive read about this long ago and probably plugged my amp/s direct, but...Until this morning I had my Audio Alchemy DPA-1 (and several class Ds before it)  plugged...
