please tell me one 1k amp that could even compare to A21. the sudgen used would be the only one I know.
about your question, I have had topping tp 20, art0 modules, tpa 3116 breeze, listened to many nad, yamaha, ect integrated, hypex ncore, ice modules, probably pascal as well. they are quite good, still not close to the best amp out there.
You mention the Breeze. The power supply is everything with a TPA3116.
Lap top power bricks won't get you there but a linear regulated like the $35 Astron in this picture will. It's by far the best mod/upgrade.
Adding a tube preamp is also a must to extract the best sound from any class D. implemented this way the TPA's resolution is squarely in SET territory and jaw dropping.
