What? I was asking some other guy, and then you started saying that something was occurring with a mono block.You tell me. You brought it up. It's up to you to know or not know.

Amirm means the gain and input voltage determines the output valtage or output power, no matter what the speaker sensitivity is, the output power is determined by the input voltage giving a fixed gain.How does speaker sensitivity not matter? I don't understand is why the speaker sensitivity would not matter in combination with the amplifier's gain when I have a target SPL. I think I lack an understanding of these relationships.
It is you that is pretending to know something. Read your post if you need to. So tell me why would you not get a monoblock?Why? Would you get a pair of mono DACs as well if there where any? Mono DSPs? Mono streamers? How far would you go for that ultra-high end feel?
Personally I don't see any reason whatsoever to buy a monoblock unless it's for a sub.
sure.
sounds to me like you're attracted to the luxury and prestige of that gear. if so, i know what you mean.
do you think this little box would adequately scratch that luxury itch?
You maybe haven't realized the size:
View attachment 360847
You can hold it in your hand,easily, and you have to be careful with the cabling as they can drag it down,it weights only about a kilo.
Maybe a mini desk rack as the ones we see around?
(what kind of speakers is that with the tweeter bolted on the baffle and not flush-mounted? Rendering? )
How do you use them?I want a 4 pack!

Many powered desktop speakers come with mono amps but for your itch I think you'll need the separated amp cases. What speakers do you use?Yes, given that I have a desktop system, and ‘full size’ would be inappropriate.
many people claiming against monoblock amp ... and the argument is always the same, it doesn't improve the sound, so, why use that instead to a stereo amp.
Yes, generally is in that way.
But, for people who wants to use monoblocks ... where they will find a pair with decent performance at that price?
Do you understand that is a few bucks over the stereo option?
So, why complain and complain about the decisions of other people if they know what they are doing?
i understand to complain about the normal "audiophile" silly decision to buy an Accuphase at 10k thinking it have the "end of the world" performance. Because it's not.
If that person buys the Acupphase because knows about it, have the money and want it, it's ok.
so, IMHO ... live and let live. People knows the monoblock won't be "night and day" with the stereo version, but is only a few bucks more and we want it for different reasons.
in my case, i like the idea to have very short speaker cables and long XLR signal cables. That's why i want the monoblock. You don't? It's ok for me
It’s cheaper than the stereo alternatives with similar performance at a similar price, perhaps?

O-NOORUS: I didn't know this brand, are they reliable?
Haven't you got that the wrong way around?
It uses the whole case as heatsink, and has big holes on both side.Nice little amp. But what about thermals? I don't see any vents in there. Is the body full metal?
Also this is probably me being picky but doesn't this amp bring along all old Class D child ilnesses we have fixed in this day and age?
Does it matter if 31dB is too hot? You need a preamp with volume control anyway…31dB is probably a bit hot for 2.0V, but 25dB is a bit low- it depends on the steps and range on the D/A's digital volume. I'd set it for 25dB and only change it to 31dB if I was constantly up near 0dB on the D/A's output vol.
I think this little unit could be a really good seller for Fosi.
So you don't want 4 Ohms Z drive capability?I'd rather have either a pure monoblock like this Fosi or a 2xTPA3255 with a single PSU like the Topping PA7 than a 1xTPA3255 stereo that wouldn't be much cheaper to begin with and that delivers 25% less power at 4ohms.
How is it different?This is completely different than the 50% increase in price with no significant performance increase we see in other price points, $1000 Ncx500 stereo VS $1450 monoblocks for example.
With mono block amps using dedicated power supplies there will be zero crosstalk from the amps.please measure the crosstalk. I'm interested in what will actually happen.
What is O-NOORUS D1?Stereo version should be promising )
Now, to be honest I would wait for the O-NOORUS D1 PFFB Stereo amp with :
- PRE OUT
- Subwoofer
- Volume Control Potentiometer / Bypass mode
- Tone Control (bass / treble) / Tone bypass
- Remote control
- Digital front panel display
The TPA3255 PFFB amp war has been launched)
