DAC4800A demo is IN
« Reply #560 on: 10 Mar 2010, 12:35 am »
If your in the market for a Class D amp, I highly recommend you put the DAC4800A on your shortlist of amps to audition. With the Purity preamp fronting the DAC4800A, one of our listeners during testing thought he was listening to a SET amp. He had no clue the DAC4800A was the amplifier driving the speakers.

Tommy doesn't sell through dealers but if he did this would be a Class D amp that I would want to carry!
Thanks, Joe.
We are looking into dealers once again, by the way.
We have a DAC4800A demo in stock now, so send a PM if interested.  We also have a few Cherry demos in stock, including an old version unit in excellent condition.

Just too Much Money. I think I would Spend $1200.00 on a Wyred 4 Sound SX-1000 II First.
Just My Opinion, and maybe a little of a Hint. :eyebrows: :D :D :D

Been there, done that.  The Cherry is better in all areas.

Has anyone compare the DAC4800A to the Cherry?   Does both offer the SAME sound signature except more power with the Cherry?

Since price in bridging 2 DAC4800A is ~1 Cherry ... has anyone decided to bridge 2 DAC4800A instead of 1 Cherry?

new Cherry PLUS review
« Reply #569 on: 9 Apr 2010, 05:09 pm »
A new Cherry PLUS review is located here:
http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=79898.msg762612#msg762612

There are reviews sprinkled about on AC.  Maybe on a separate review thread would be good...

Anyway, have a nice weekend everybody!

Hey Tommy, got to hear the Cherry Plus over the weekend at the NY RAVE, very nice amp  :thumb: , crystal clear as always on Emil's Magnaplaner Magnepan's. With over 400 watts per channel @ 8 ohms, I wish Barry had pulled it out for Neil's Acoustic Zen Crecendo's. I think it might have been a nice comparison opportunity with the WiredforSound Integrated.
 
Cheers,
Robin

Hey Robin, I would have put the Cherry+ into Niel's system, but when asked about it, he didn't seem enthusiastic and I wasn't going to push the subject.
