In Reply to: Anyone ditched their Class A amp for digital? posted by Dawnrazor on August 13, 2006 at 21:52:38:
I had what I thought was the most revealing setup possible, with my own OTL monoblocks driving MG-20 midrange and treble, and InnerSound SS driving the bass panels. I got detail that I did not hear in any but one or two other systems.Then the Gilmore Raptors arrived for audition, and I realized that they deliver even more detail and with superlative control of the Maggie panel and room resonances. I've been able to resolve AC issues with my source that the previous setup obscured. The sound is much, much better. It is more relaxed and life-like than what I could get with tubes, and has better authority than what I could get with the big InnerSound as a bass amp.
Linear amps are dinosaurs. Just be sure to avoid switching amps with switching supplies.
