Rocky Mountain Music Festival coming soon

I got a couple quick photos of the new amp playing away in the shop. These were really quick snap shots taken as the folks were leaving the shop for the weekend. So, not the best shots, but you can get an idea. I know that three colors are going to be offered; copper, silver, and bronze. As per request, this is an AS exclusive first look in the forums...

I got a sneak look at a silver one being packed up to go to the show. I really like the silver one... wow... I was told that the copper one was gonna burn in some more over the weekend before being sent over night to Denver. It is slated to be the amp being played!

Yes that is a stage 2 being prepared for Denver also. I wanted to grab them both and take them home :)...

Did you get any idea on $
 
I do know this will be less and a higher model with the display is planned. This is a revolutionary new Class D, completely designed by EJ. Also the prototype shown 2 years ago won awards in Denver.
 
Sounds good Randy. The $5k price was for the version with the display. After the show time to get one in the mail to Srajen. He has the Stage 2 on hand to run it with along with multiple Pass and First Watt models as well as the Nord SE amp for comparison.

Randy a few post back, W4S made this statement about this amp "" Brand new amplifier technology, design by EJ (no ICE, no NCore) :D! 250 wpc and bridgeable to 750 watts... The plans are for a 750wpc unit with LED display and controls to follow, statement nextGEN X."" So what kind of class D is it, I wonder if its eGaN FET-based Class D amplifiers
 
Hey Chris... I do not know that answer, but I know EJ has been designing his own Class D for about five years. He did give a look see on an early alpha prototype at 2015 RMAF. It won Best of Show. This is a vastly updated version... all fabricated in house here in California. I want a Silver one... looks like stainless Steel! He told me this bad boy stores more energy than the amazing Ampzilla 2000 2nd edition.
 
Looking forward to a shoot out with that amp collection. Usually has many different speaker types on hand too. Randy I assume on all of the colors the black framework stays the same and only the center piece is changed out like on other models.

Maybe he will let you take the amp and preamp home for a couple of days after the show.
 
Yes, it is the center section... the silver/stainless steel looked really hot to me! The copper is eye catching, but many of the W4S staff agreed with me and liked the silver, a lot! The bronze is the color that the little prototype headphone amp was shown in at the 2015 RMAF.

By the way, the copper is incredible when used with the KEF Black speakers with the copper drivers. Sitting next to EJ's Reference 3's with the copper drivers it is stunning.
 
Well the RMAF was very busy and we feel successful. A lot of interest in the new statement nextGEN amplifier!

There was also a ton of interest in the new MS Music Server and of course many people were excited to see our new PH-1 phono stage.

We are going to do our best to get these three new items into production as fast as we can!
