If anyone is interested in seeing the internals of this this Musmy A-75 here they are and yes I’m aware that the Vu meters say “pean” they never fixed this mistake on this product, there is a newer version of this model out that is twice the price for some reason.


A-75 technical parameters:
1: Rated continuous output power (20HZ-20000HZ)
Pure Class A: Stereo sound:
480W X2 1 ohm output
240W X2 2 ohm output

60W X2 8 ohm output

Fully balanced bridging:
960W X2 2 ohm output
480W X2 4 ohm output
240W X2 8 ohm output

2: Frequency response:
Continuous rated output :20-20000HZ +0 -0.2db
1W output: 0.5-160000HZ +0 -3 dB
3: S/N signal-to-noise ratio full frequency band 118dB
4: Total harmonic distortion: 0.05 2 ohms 0.01% 8 ohms
5: Input impedance: 40K (balanced input), 20K (RCA input)
6: Input sensitivity: 0.87V rated continuous average output
0.11V output 1 watt power
7: Gain attenuator: MAX -3dB -6dB -12Db
Corresponding magnification: 28 25 22 16
8: Damping coefficient 1000
9: Amplification factor of 28dB
10: Static power consumption 260W, maximum power consumption 520W
11: Overall size 430W * 225 H * 500 Dmm
12: Net weight 28 (kg)

Features:
●Class A output, 120W4 Ω × 2 stereo sound

●The output adopts 12 field-effect power transistors per channel, which can drive impedance as low as 1 Ω.

● The input adopts an exclusive white master developed fully balanced low noise module, which can greatly expand the frequency
response of music, improve sound clarity and intensity

●The voltage amplification section adopts two sets in parallel to reduce input noise and improve dynamic range.

●Adopting DC stabilization technology to ensure stable operation of the power amplifier.

● Add (220V) voltage isolation technology to effectively isolate DC from entering the transformer.

“A-75 includes an upgraded version of the "MCS+circuit" with an initial slow charging amplifier circuit equipped with "MCS", an improved version of the multi-stage parallel circuit design, combined with a current feedback design, to ensure linear response at each level. The amplification unit circuit is connected in parallel to reduce noise, and a DC stabilized power supply is installed in the drive section and MCS+circuit to improve SN ratio and sound purity. The high-efficiency large transformer is stored in a metal cover, combined with a "super large pond" filtering group, to provide sufficient and stable power supply. The amplifier part adopts a fully balanced amplification circuit design, with 12 high-power field-effect transistors used for amplification output ineach channel, achieving high-quality and high driving force. It provides pure Class A 60W x2 (8 Ω), 120W x2 (4 Ω), 240W x2 (2 Ω), and 480W x2 (1 Ω) true power amplification outputs. Provide powerful power output and super strong driving capability.”

I’m going to hook it up this afternoon at some point.
Product is easy to find on alibaba or AliExpress.

This thing seems to be put together very nicely, I do not know if the internals are quality or even real, but my musmy e-406 works flawlessly and barely gets hot so I’m sure this unit will perform about the same.
 
The PCB and parts quality are clearly mediocre. It couldn’t be more different from the advertised “Accuphase” original, at least as advertised on AliExpress.

It’s simply a poor shitshow. If they removed “Accuphase” from their marketing, everyone would happily ignore it and rightly so. .

What parts are low quality and why? I’m generally just curious.

How so? Looks fine to me

I'm not knowledgeable about electronic circuitry. I would like to know specifics as to deficiencies.

Compared to the Accuphase original or in general?

If this Accuphase copy works, it does. The original costs twenty times more, which should also be considered.

IF Accuphase themselves have nothing to object to, well, there is this Musmy cheap nock of for those who want a little Accuphase feel but don't have the wallet for it.
I wonder how it is with durability, though? Not that I'm going to buy it, but potential buyers will probably think about it.

Edit:
If you're going to build copies/clones, why not make them good or even better: :)

If someone knows how to measurements and wants to review this item, I am in Oklahoma, and frequent DFW area, too bad Amir doesn't live in a closer state. Couldnt imagine the shipping from OK to Washington state for this beast.

Probably just in general, no one is really buying this because they think its a accuphase 1:1 clone, it has good specs, sounds good and looks cool. I've spent a lot on speakers r11 metas and mofi 888's but I dont think I could ever stomach spending $10k+ on a power amp lol I bought this because I was curious, all 3 products I have from Musmy have been very good quality so far.
 
Lol now these probably qualify for copyright infringement

Sure.

Anyway, even if this kind of clone isn't badged Accuphase (or any other cloned brand), these makers are obviouly searching tocopt the appearance of well known original products and get profit from this imitation. I guess Accuphase and other copied brands have asked their lawyers if something could be done to suit such practices.

Even if these amps works fine (it's easy to make an amp work fine today, anyway) I'm shocked by this obvious imitation. As for me, it's not a proper audio industry.
You'd better buy an original good and cheap class D or AB from a maker of today, at least you'll own a real product and not an external copycat.

People who are ready to buy things like like this suffer in my opinion from an obsession for the object as an appearance, they're not in quest for an object for its function and its quality. It's the same as people who crave for a copy (often at a price) of a well known sculpture or painting. I have no will at all in such a confusion between object and artistic or technical creation.
I like Accuphase, or Mc, or Quad amps, but I would never buy such imitation products, good or not.

I'm sure they haven't as they'll be well aware there is no infringement. The Musmy design is not a copy and does not appropriate the Accuphase brand name. It borrows some styling cues. That's all. That's commonplace in multiple industries - watches, automotive, fashion, furniture.

Do you think Lotus tried to sue Mazda over the MX5 styling? The MX5 is actually a much closer design rip off of the Elan than the Musmys is to Accuphase. This sort of thing happens all the time and always has done.
 
I disagree with your appreciation concerning your comparison. Of course, Mazda has been seriouly influenced by Lotus, but look carefully, you can't assume the Mazda MX5 looks like a plain copy of the much older Lotus Elan.

And there is another difference: Mazda never referred to the Lotus for their advertising.
On the contrary, Musmy's amps are sold as stylish clone of several Accuphase models ; this may create confusion for poorly infomed customers.

It's one thing to be influenced by original esthetics design, this is indeed quite common in all major industries, I don't deny.
But It's another one for a brand to focus on the close resemblance between its product and the product of another brand in order to sell better its own product.
Of course, it's up to the copied brand and its lawyers if it's worth to ask the commercial justice to decide if there is infringment or not.
Maybe quite simply Accuphase has considered that it's not worth the time and money spent in procedure,

After all, Accuphase is a relatively small high end niche maker, and Musmy is a small not highend niche maker. That's indeed quite a marginal issue for our favourite industry and hobby, but I maintain my negative appreciation about this kind of copy brands.

I have both the D5 Pro and D9 Pro Master Edition Dartzeel clones and several Class D AMPs. The D5 Pro is already a superb AMP and the D9 Pro Master sounds exactly the same. The Class D also sound the same, given the same source (DAC and Pre-Amp). I wasted close to 1000 Euros just to get the supposedly better D9 Pro Master Editon AMP from Ali, only to find out that it sounds exactly the same as my D5 Pro and all Class D AMPs that I also own. Thats when I realized, that all AMPs sound the same. The DAC and Pre-Amp are much more important. So this Accuphase clone will NOT sound any different from the original, that costs 20 times more. I can personally vouch for that. I say this again and again. Buy the cheapest capable AMP you can find, that delivers the power you need, and invest the rest in equal terms to the speakers, DAC and Pre-Amp. Thats how you maximize your budget. Room treatment excluded, of course. That should be a seperate endavour.

It's not a copy. That's the whole point I'm making. It's influenced quite heavily by the design of the Elan, exactly the way the Musmy styling is influenced by Accuphase.

That is not illegal to do and it happens all the time. Now if it was superficially at least an exact copy possibly Accuphase could bring a civil suit and it would be up to a judge to decide, but if you compare it to real Accuphase it's clear that it is some distance from a close copy of any of their amps.

IIRC VW Audi did bring suit against a Chinese manufacturer for making very close copies of their vehicles albeit they did not use the Audi name or logo on them. They lost.
