    You are wrong. There’s zero import duty for American or Chinese stereo equipment imported to UK. Check here or search gov.uk

    Bass traps down the side of cupboards.

    Technically, you can integrate a membrane basstraps or Helmholtz resonators to your cupboards by leaving enough volume behind them. Contrary to what @Bjorn said, you do have a large volume to play with, which is enough to affect bass down to around 40-50Hz. Mind you, I’m talking theoretically...

    They said the SMPS will fail if limits are breached. See their notice at the top. He did.

    BUCKEYEAMPS Hypex NCx500 Amplifier 2channel Review

    They didn’t say that for the amplifier. They said for the SMPS. Their amplifiers can deliver the rated power if you can cool them. It’s their power supply that is limited. It’s also the power supply that failed in this test. It’s Hypex’s confusing specs that cause the issue. They do not offer...

    Not the wrong one but to the correct one as the title clearly says.

    The discussion is about the BUCKEYEAMPS' power rating and failure.

    Why would I ask them? I should ask the amplifier manufacturer. Its not Hypex is it on the case?

    Hence the confusion and incompleteness of the specs.

    The SMPS is not the power amplifier. it’s a free standing unit. Do you measure a power amplifier output power by the SPL value of a speaker connected to it? Then why would you measure the power supply output capacity with the power output of the amplifier its feeding?

    There it is. I must have missed it. It clearly says the power supply current limit is not protected and if you drain enough power you can damage the unit. As @thin bLue demonstrated.

    They save you from DIY. They do the DIY in a larger scale. It’s a way to start but by now they should have taken the responsibilities of a manufacturer themselves.

    Am I blind or there is no output current value on that table?

    What a brilliant idea! @amirm’s CV should ease the way into manufacturers.
