    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    Help me understand something if you would. What numbers for a class A/B would get most excited? One user stated that Dan is using an AES standard to show his distortion numbers. Maybe I am wrong for thinking that there should be a breakdown of the classes on amps as well. Is there a link that...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    Same here my Anthem isn't a great measure and I love it. What I don't want to happen to one of the few small retailers that is so nice is people see this and go well that's a POS :) I sent an email to see if he wanted to test, as I had to try out a new Aegir 2, I have never heard that style and...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    Well, Dan didn't send it for testing and provided his testing. How many other manufacturers have you seen do this? I do have the Z4 4ohm version, I will reach out to @amirm about testing it, and I'll chat with Dan about the differences, as he explains one is optimized for 8 ohms 1 is for 4 ohms.

    Can you verify? Did you do any listening on this device or is that for mfg that sends units to you?

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    If you read the replies I posted from his emails and his summary, he shows what he measured off the shelve. This was a kit that someone submitted, it is possible, that there may be an issue with the build. Dan wouldn't say that without testing. I think the fair thing to do would get units tested...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    That is another thing, his customer service is some of the best in the business! He wants all to enjoy. He retested an in-house sample at 3 am after I sent him these results. If anyone has a question he will call you in a second and does everything for a customer

    The designer tested his sample on the day of this review, his test where presented here by me. He listed each bullet point:

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    I bought mine from Dan (pre-made and tested), and I will take it over any of class D that I own, it won from 11 people over a NAD M23 in a small listening test with this amp. It sounds amazing when made correctly!

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    His samples come in at 83+, I don't see too many A/B amps getting 83+ even some that cost more than 5-10 times this.

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    I do not work for the company, just own one of the Z4, @amirm Is there a direct email for Dan to chat with you? I did get some more information from him. It looks like his off-the-shelf samples differ from as-built house specs: I followed the link, but still couldn't find contact info for...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    At the end of the day, I do think this is exactly what we want from a manufacturer. Can anyone copy this and make it show up for all to see?

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    Ok gentlemen, because I would like to share how much this guy cares about his customers and these products. I reached out to him personally to let him know of the review. Now how many companies would do this? He is USA-based and offers a return and an amazing product: Email copied: At 3: am CST...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    This is from Dan the owner: Some of what they say is true...I've limited peak currents to limit power dissipation to make it pretty bulletproof. I'd be curious what ASR's thoughts are on the GT-102 Z4 version. It's also hard to say as to whether the unit might have a problem or not. All the...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    I bet the owner would build you one to test the installer. He's a nice guy, I own a bought Z4 version of this amp, made by him, and one of the best-sounding amplifiers that I have brought to compete with many amps and it comes out on top. I think there maybe an issue with the build.
