T and D conclusions (Off Topic)

As GC noticed, these amps act strange pretty fast on loads below 4
ohms but this is not the point,

... because you tweaked that out.

the most important one is their produced sound.

Which in the end (now we properly judged them) comes down to what I
"promised" before we started this : they act as a DAC (and some really
*are* like a TacT / Lyngdorf which are truly digital amps).

Thus, what it -for me- comes to, is that this "D/A" operation in there,
will be one of the hundreds (if not more) of D/A converters existing, and
sure the one is better than the other. More importantly, I think that the
principles of the (semi) digital amps lead to huge oversampling of the
data, which is the very first thing I don't like. For that matter it can
well be that treating the outcoming data of them with a nos-DAC (like we
do) is the worst thing to do. An oversampling DAC might be rounding the
digital errors of the digital amp better ...

But hey, what are we doing then ?
How many times did we molest the data then ?

Hello Peter...

nna..The TacT is a powerful DAC ..yeah?

Now take that and change it into a nos-DAC and apply your bit-perfect GC Vista ...

What will we then experience? :heart:
