It was good, but it was not superior to where the market is. I get the impression we are trying to solve a problem that don't exist.Not a good showing so far for Gan in home audio. At least the car amp was good.
In for a penny, in for a pound.I find that already weird to have the two RCA Channels spread appart and separated by the Power chord. That would split them even more, Most RCA cables are two channels.
The problem is people need your money. Solution is Gan.It was good, but it was not superior to where the market is. I get the impression we are trying to solve a problem that don't exist.
not relay, especially not cheap.We already have class D that’s better than we can hear.
Please link me to a Hypex amp with 400 WPC so I can see the price.Curios, why this over a Crown XLS for 1/5 the cost?
Edit:
Even better. Why this over a hypex amp for 1/3 the cost?

2. There is a floating lead and that should be fixed, but it should not affect the review. Would you downgrade a car being reviewed because it has a flat tire? Of course not.
4. The FR is +/- 0.5dB except for 4 ohms over 15 hz. How many of us can hear -1 dB at 20kHz, or 17 kHz for that matter? None of us
Thanks. Head-to-head that is certainly a better choice, IMO. Interesting that Amir noted a wiring error in this unit as well but chose to fix it before completing the review. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...-and-measurements-of-nord-one-nc500-amp.7704/Nord One NC500ST Stereo Amplifier | nordacoustics
Our entry level stereo power amplifier with twin Hypex NCore NC500’s, Single Hypex SMPS1200A700 PSU and cut down (no Sparkos discrete Voltage regulators) REV C buffers with OPA1612 Op-Amp in a true Dual Mono design incorporated in a single stereo case. Same sound quality as the Mono Blocks.www.nordacoustics.co.uk
PMA, I will certainly defer to your knowledge of those things you mention, however, they seem to me outside the scope of Amir's review.That’s completely wrong view. The speaker is never a pure resistance, it is a complex impedance of R, L, C parts with phase response from -45 degrees to +45 degrees as a rule. With output LC filter this often makes up to 2dB deviations near to 10kHz and this is very audible. I have shown measurements of this behaviour with real speakers many times in ASR, however the effort is hopeless. Same simplified reasoning based on resistor load arrives over and over. Most posters remain on the surface and do not see deeper into the problem.
I DIYed this, but in two monoblocs. Very happy with them. Haven't measured to see if there is a benefit in having 2 separate boxes but in all case it's more than good enough for my ears and audio chain. Looks like it's not the absolute Hypex champ in term of measured Sinad and such but there's a point where it's just enough. it delivers lots of power and that matter to me.Thanks.

To me, it is fairly obvious what was the matter with you: I think it was the lack java that made your hands shake while taking the photo.I really dislike the hard to read type on the back.
