I’m finally taking the time to put my two pennies on the board. I want to share my discovery with fellow audiophiles in cyberspace.
Not long ago, I purchased Wyred4Sound stereo amplifier (200S – 125 watts output). I have been hearing so many good things about D class amplifiers. I decided to give it a try. After a long research, Wyred4sound caught my attention not only because the company works with PS Audio, but also it is one of premier custom modifications centers in the country, if not the world.
My budget was limited at the time, so I purchased the stereo amp. When the amp finally arrived home double boxed, I could not believe how lite and small the amplifier was. The small size was very much welcome after a long time dealing with my 100 pound Krell amp. The primary reason for such small size is the amp’s state of the art ICE technology. The overall feel and quality of parts was well above the amp’s price point.
I was excited to hear what this little amp could do. I popped in a “Cowboy Junky” cd. All I can say is “! WOW!! WOW!! WOW!” I could not believe my ears on how good it sounded right out of the box.
After about 300 hours or so the amp really warmed up. I can safely say that ”the amp gives a tube like sound”, but with a lot more authority. The bass was strong and detailed. Many tube amps lack that authoritative bass. The amp has the speed and resolution of a solid state amplifier that would cost three to four times as much. I really don’t see anyone going wrong with Wyred4Sound amps.
This amp has that special something that most of audiophiles are looking for - its “musicality”.
Do yourself a favor and audition one of Wyred4Sound amps. I assure you, you will not be disappointed. From what I have been told, the more powerful mono amplifiers sound even better.
