Thank you. I am trying to google and can't quite find where I should buy those kits and boards from? I would appreciate if you point me to online store(s).

New Hypex Nilai500DIY modules )
- Thread starter daniboun
- Start date
Same here - I would like specifications and details for low impedance performance...
Perferably both 1 ohm and 2 ohm - but I would be happy with just the 2 ohm performance details!
Would also be nice to know the current limit for the Nialai500 on its own, as well as the combo with its own power supply (which will indicate whether you can eke out a bit more by choosing a better PSU....)
Recall that the NC400 was capable of 580W/2ohm and the fabled NC1200 was capable of 1200W/2ohm, but their 8 and 4 ohm rating exactly the same.
Nilai500DIY will be the first and finest, but more Nilai products will come to end-consumers.

Yes.... still want to see actual specs - and see the amps rated for those impedances.

We can annouch now that the Nilai mono and stereo kit as well as our pre amplifier kit will be available on the web shop upcoming Monday. So keep an eye out on the shop. We will release a newsletter and post on Facebook when they are online.

The current DSP we offer is not compatible for the new Nilai products.

that is a good questions. We will out face this module now. still have existing stock so it depends on how quick these are sold out. We expect still to have stock for a few months. Service on these modules will of course be done for several years and for out of warranty modules we expect to have replacements available for at least 5 years in total.
Not very encouraging for potential buyers of those last units... but your honesty is appreciated
Any plans for newer dsp for your new amps
I would like to have a crown amp replacement instead of a plate amp
Hypex done or done by an oem vendor. Dozens making nCore based amps but done with dsp
Seems very reasonable to me (notably for niche DIY electronics). Have been in Hypex place and forecasting is tricky enough usually. End of life forecasting is a whole other level of uncertainty and parts are even worse. Often end up with too many and have to write them off. After a few years, many hobbyists are likely itching for an upgrade too. Am guessing Hypex ability to repair would likely be even longer than 5 years.
May be that I have lower expectations, but how long do you think Hypex should support?
Well, I own an hypex based amp (commercial one, not diy) since aprox one year ago. Before that I had a Yamaha that I used for like 10 years and sold still working and before that I had a Sony that I believe was close to 18 years in use. So yes, I hope my hypex can be repaired for well beyond 5 years from now, as I believe many owners, certainly not all, but for sure many, hope too.
What is inside the box, if it is niche or is easy or not for the company to keep stock, is not my problem and I could not care less nor I am going to research when I purchase something.
It is true that maybe, only maybe, diy stuff goes by different rules and expectations, but still cost good money are are certainly not mean to be consumables. Just my opinion.
Hands up anyone who is already intent on a purchase Monday..... I am looking for a DIY 8 channel amplifier so count me out, keeping a very close eye on this thread though.
How many power supplies would be needed for an 8 channel version?
