That NCore Class D power amp on the right
For some reason I saw the logo on the front and thought streamer. Makes sense

And since purifi they actually became REALLY goodCan't blame you, class D amps are very small these days
Unfortunately no such thing happeningLooking forward to the soon to be released iESL Signature.
Dear iFI, food for thought...without a new signature iESL why would a consumer buy the iCAN?

I've been using a NAD M22 V2 (300 W @ 8 ohms) with my iESL for almost a year. Zero issues.In the manual, it is mentioned that when connecting a power amp to the iESL, its output power should not exceed 100W @8Ohm. Does anyone have experience with connecting higher-powered amps to this thing? I have an Audiophonics HPA 400ET with around 225W @8Ohm. Could this still work?
Thanks for your replies. Ifi just got back to me, recommending not to use such high-powered amps with their device... as they write in their manual

Finally got to hear the famed Blue Hawaii at Can Jam last weekend and while sounded great, there was no part of me that felt like I must have it or aspire to own in. There was no iESL to directly compare to nor the SR-009 which is the main e-stat I use with mine, though there was the 009S. Just confirmed for me that my Sonnet Morpheus to Ragnarok 2 to iESL (with or without Pendant SE as pre-amp to Ragnarok) is pretty sweet and not something I need to plan on upgrading. Also true of the 009, as I didn't feel like the X9000, 009S, or CRBN were more to my liking. If anything, the ethereal qualities I get out of the 009 weren't really there for me with the others.
It would be ok, if you still manage to aquire an iESL.I'm thinking of dipping my toe into the electrostatic pond...
Would I be ok using my Simaudio Moon 600i with the iESL?
It would be awesome to have one amp to drive estats as well as my 1266 TCs and SR1a.
