Gains should be the same at max, and input level for clipping appears to match the DLCP's maximum output level at 2.6V.
8 Ohms (max power) | 4 Ohms. (max power) | THD+N between 100mW to 5W | |
PA3s | 27 W | 46 W | -80 to - 90 |
PA5 | 48 W | 83 W | -90 to -107 |
Thx. I live in India . eBay is not an option . eBay clones are unreliable..Maybe look for a used B&K Reference 200.7. Seven channels at 200 wpc, and balanced inputs. I see a couple on eBay right now for moderate cost. Not new, but traditional Class AB amps with a linear power supply and MOSFET finals will sound good and should be repairable by old techs unwilling to work on Class D equipment.
I also saw a B&K AV 1260, which is 12 channels at 60 watts each.

Noted. Thx.There's more detail on the amp requirements at https://www.linkwitzlab.com/LXmini/Amplifiers.htm
I think the PA3s is going to be underpowered for the woofer. If you make some measured gain adjustments, whether on the volume control of the amp or in the DSP setup, you could use a PA3s on the tweeter and PA5 on the woofer to reduce the cost a little.
Suggestions most welcome.
Have a work colleague or friend buy stuff for you where it is reliable to do so, and, after determining that it works and doesn’t need to be returned, ship it to you.Thx. I live in India . eBay is not an option . eBay clones are unreliable..
Mcdn..It sounds like the problem is most likely something in your environment, so switching amp module supplier might not help

Hello, would you know what the connector is called for the IN/CTRL? I saw something similar in one of my amps and I can’t seem to identify it properly. Thank youAlternatively, I might try to find out what that resistor does and why it failed (generally underrated? symptom of something else, maybe even the humidity?), and once that is fixed properly, get the UcD boards conformally coated after thorough drying and cleaning. Conformal coating can be bought as a spray can I think (plastic spray). In your climate there may be no way around it.
BTW, does this capacitor look slightly domed or am I imaging things?

[No, it is unlikely to be heat or humidity]
Molex KK series according to the datasheet, which I don't see on their site any more.Hello, would you know what the connector is called for the IN/CTRL? I saw something similar in one of my amps and I can’t seem to identify it properly. Thank you
