@Hypexsales is the same NCOREx technology in the Nilai500 with just another name, or are they completely different technologies (and why)?

From the website:

DIY PREAMPLIFIER​

To complement our DIY amplifier modules we introduce our DIY PreAmplifier kit. Just like our amplifier kits you get a complete kit to assemble an analogue high-end preamplifier. Add-ons like a DAC, Phono stage and EQ will be released in the nearby future.

interesting... even though i guess it will end up costing much much more that i will be able to pay for it...:D

Hello folks!

A couple of quick notes:
  1. Amir and I are working with @Hypexsales to get evaluation hardware, but did not get an early unit and so may be months before we see something.
  2. As he mentioned, he has very limited time to participate in the forum, so please be patient and mindful that he may not get to every post.
Thanks for your consideration,

Rick

what would be really good for me is if these people who design these amps could design an analogues electronic crossover and parametric eq with these kind of noise and distortion figures

Looking forward to these. One question I have for @Hypexsales is about the variable gain. I can see the jumpers in the photo, is the layout of the circuit such that it would be suitable to connect those to an external gain selection switch? Any precautions in doing so?

What a great response to a direct question... :facepalm:

Not disagreeing, but in their defense, Hypex is more directly engaged here than others...

They are discrete even with their OEMs (am one for sake of full disclosure). All I can add is they are dealing with supply chain issues but expect they will have some positive news for ASR members very soon. :)

(Pretty ?) Graphs!

As noted by @boXem | audio in a previous thread, gains are not identical for the different amp measurements in this graph. You can check the sources for details, but some are unknown.

Concerning the Nilai modules: I welcome the lower idle power consumption and the inclusion of a standby PSU in the SMPS module - that should significantly reduce standby consumption. I would expect below 0.5 W (due to EU regulations). That was a relevant weaknesss of the NC122MP and NC252MP from my point of view. And 2x NC400 + SMPS1200 wasn't any better than those two integrated modules - unless combined with a dedicated standby PSU, of course.

I measured 15 W at idle for each of the 2 Hypex NC400…a bit too much indeed.
