Buckeye Amps 2024 News and Upcoming Products

The YouTube channel is @Bestofhighend

I'll pass on linking it as it's not my material. I've never heard of the channel before.

From 1 month ago there's a 42 min video on the circuits he's developed in his career, and then you want to watch the 20 minute video where he's holding a 9040 - talking about how he's solved distortion problems with the feedback loop. I wish he would've talked about it being a fully differential amplifier as that's the key difference from the purifi modules before it.

I have a class H amp that I'd eventually want to get away from due to its fan and 18 yrs age. 950wpc into 8, 1500wpc into 4. Curious how the 9040 handles large drivers and/or testing with that power cube.

No integration planned for Sylph Audio and 3E Audio modules like Audiophonics?

No plans.

No plans.

Any reasons ?

Would be disadvantageous expanding into that area of Class D for our company at this time. Would rather keep focusing on our Hypex/Purifi offerings and the Integrated.

Looking forward to seeing the integrated, can you provide some specs?

How's the new Storm compared to the AVM70? I have an AVM70.

And how's the new demo theatre room? Any details you're excited about?

Seems like the wrong thread for this, mistake?

Dylan said in a YouTube interview on BA at the end of last year that he was building a new theatre room to be a demo room for his products for customers. And that he was switching to the Storm processor that will feed all these new amps to demo. So I assume that would be new for 2024.

Technically new for 2024 but not pertinent for the purpose of this thread regarding products (no harm no foul).
There is a dedicated HotM thread of my build on AVS if you wanted to get a more in-depth response.

I can say the Storm is working flawlessly (better to me than the Trinnov in a few regards) and everything is better than I had hoped.

If you are in fact willing to demo to customers, I may be curious enough to drive across the border at some point this year and maybe I could hear a ncx vs 9040 vs 7040. I'm curious about the highs on the slightly older amps vs the new 9040, that if I recall correctly you could see on a graph the rising distortion above 10kHz. Or maybe some event for many listeners is more effective with your time. Just Bruno is claiming on the 9040 that the "grit" on the highs has been solved, due to a better understanding of the output filter. Like what does that mean and can you hear a difference. It would be great to just get a 3 channel NCX, but is the 9040 better.

That "grit" was supposedly solved in the original Purifi 400.

Why not have a preamplifier instead of an integrated amplifier i already have one of your amps so i dont really need/want an integrated. Basically delete the amp from the integrated and sell it as a preamp

Ok now you got my interest i eagerly await the details
