And now for something completely different—and totally unexpected, When I walked into the April Music room, one of the Korean gents at the door proudly pointed to the tiny $6.5k April Stella 700 integrated amp sitting between Marten’s $35k, three-way, ceramic and diamond-driver Coltrane loudspeakers. “It’s Class D!” he said, beaming. I know I shouldn’t have, but I couldn’t resist. “What happened?” I asked. “Did all your other amplifiers break?” He was not amused. And, as it turned out, he was right. I almost hate to admit this but the Martens and that dinky April amp were simply gorgeous-sounding on Joan Sutherland’s soprano voice! The combo then proceeded to show superb transparency, neutrality, detail, bass, imaging, and realism on Blue Tofu. Guitar Gabriel? The most lifelike I’ve heard since the Scaenas at CES. Contender for best of show? Well, yeah, but…even though the Stella 700 might be high among the most realistic Class D amp I’ve heard, it still lacked ambience and depth of stage and image (rather like CDs do). Still and all, real is real. And, in a show where nothing else was this consistently lifelike, I’m willing to grant the April Stella 700/Marten Coltrane combo its foibles.
