RE: GaN FET isn't going to magically make better sounding Class D amps.

That's a whole thread in itself :)

There is a company making a power amp from Putzey's Eigentakt modules and they add their own 'audiophile' zero-feedback buffer at the input and use an over sized 'linear' PSU too. That buffer has no supply rejection so any supply noise goes straight through the amplifier. Maybe if they'd designed the input buffer properly they wouldn't need such a PSU.

Of course 'linear' power supplies are anything but linear - full-wave rectification and only sampling the mains on the voltage peaks.
