Welcome Dan to our ever-growing list of Whammerdyne family members. Here are his impressions on a model DGA-1 he just received

“Hi Pat,

Wow! Wow!

 

Exactly what I was looking for!  More openness, clarity, and spaciousness without etch, brightness, or hyper-detail. Just pure natural delivery. Beautiful spaciousness. Obvious lack of smearing I never realized I was experiencing before from other amps.

 

At first, I tried CD direct to amp, and it sounded nice, but a bit more threadbare than I prefer. Once I reinserted my preamp … YES! Needed that to flesh out the sound.

 

Bass is ever so slightly less than what I get with my other way more powerful amp, yet it sounds correct. So no complaints at all about properly driving the four 15″ woofers.

 

No issue at all with power delivery. While it’s stellar at playing jazz, vocals, acoustic, and classical music, I am very happy playing rock and blues to satisfying volumes. Even playing less than stellar recordings (e.g., Iggy And The Stooges), it still sounds “good” (acceptable for what it is), which is a surprise, as so often when one gains this much clarity, recordings such as these can become unbearable.

 

Thank you for this wonderful amp! I am enjoying the heck out of it!”

 

Cheers,

Dan
