O-Noorus D3 PRO - A new TPA3255 PFFB amplifier with DAC

It would be sitting in a smaller open air space, and I'd rather not have to use a fan.
Should be all right in open space with ventilation.
That said, is the temperature load dependent? I'm planning on running pretty small drivers at reasonably low volumes.
It’s not different than others really:
- every tpa3255 runs hot with 48v psu.
- less hot or warm with 36v psu
- almost cool with 32v psu

Running amplifier hard on high volume output also adds up to it. So if your speakers have high sensitivity then 32v or 36v 6a psu probably would avoid this.

Other than the obvious output difference, is there an audible difference when using higher voltages, particularly for undemanding drivers?
This would be my first mini amp - having previously only had massive Onkyo/Anthem AVRs
 
I'm tired of waiting for a review that may never come. Do you think it's safe to buy without having any independent measurements? And do you think the difference in sound quality is worth 55€ more than the Aiyima A80? Planning to power a pair of Klipsch RP-500M II with it.

I'm also waiting for a review. I ordered it anyway and it arrived two days ago. I paid €187, directly from the O-noorus website, without a power supply. I use a Mean Well HLG 36V 6.5A power supply. I have several class D and AB amplifiers at home. I can simply say that this is a decent amplifier with a huge number of features. I was very pleased with the 5V output from USB-C to power my VU meters. Don't expect an extensive review from me, I'm not talented for that. I don't need another amplifier at home, but I just wanted to try it and it didn't disappoint. In my opinion, the most important things are the speakers and the room. This is my first post on the forum, although I've been following it for a long time. It's a valuable source of information.

Thanks for the feedback! Do you know if there's any warranty when you order on the official website directly? I know that audiophonics offers a 2 years warranty but it's 255€ and out of stock until the second week of November.
 
Nytrex: I was also considering Audiophonics, but there is no option to order without a power supply. For me, as a Central European, that was the first thought. I don't know about the warranty or money back guarantee when ordering directly from the official O-noorus website, I have no experience. For a decent seller, it should be a given and I believe that it is. I have bought from China a few times and there has never been a problem with delivery, I have never had to deal with a complaint. Regarding your second question: I have several pairs of DIY speaker systems and no amplifier with TPA 3255 that I own has ever had a problem with them. My connection: RPi - O-noorus d3 Pro - DIY speaker.

All its features and input/output make it quite versatile for different applications.
FWIW, I did got impressions that highs are more pronounced with D3 Pro compared to A80, specifically because I am a bit sensitive to even slight change in those ranges.
This is relative to my setup/room/speakers though.
Tone controls works nicely without any issues and so you can make minor adjustments to your likings.
It doesn’t lack in power compared to similar amplifiers.

Let us know how your find replacing big avr with a small amplifier.

I would rather look at the feature set than the sound quality, they are more similar than different in that regard.
 
Looks interesting


PBTL "mono" mode ?

top watts power into 4 Ohm

still stable if load goes lower?

Has a near useless LPF for line-level SW output but no HPF for mains, which is what's actually needed ?

The D1 Pro, which has just been released, is probably the right one for you.


Although I think it's more likely to be the D1 MK II than the D1 PRO.
 
I will wait respond from experienced users..d1pro could be my 1st dclass. I sent PM but would be nice that someone here respond, just to know on yamaha ns555 6 ohm what to expect on lower volume with 36v, what about heating and someone mention when change bass from 1 to 0 if I remember that hear on speaker sound..cluck or something similar..don't remember model. Aiyma a20 was option too but no review here for both. Regard and respect to members.
