Will Ncore 400 Drive Magnepan Speakers?

Hi All,

I have followed this thread with much interest.

I am a new owner of Magnepans and am searching for a high power amp to drive the speakers.

I presently have ClassDAudio amplifiers and have found their power output lacking. It is quite easy to drive these amps to shutdown on loud musical passages.

The only viable options appear to be commercial Class AB amplifiers.

Hence, this is the reason for the interest in the Ncore 400.

Does anyone have experience with driving Magnepans with this new amplifier from Hypex?

Well, if you didn't grab the last batch before they were even in stock again, it is the waiting game again. First week in May according to the Hypex webpage. Week 18.

Not yet... (my NCore's will be there soon and they will be used to drive my Magnepan 3.6R's)

I can't see a reason why they can't drive the Magnepan properly.

Just read the thread. Pretty exciting news to me though 8 months old.

The Hypex site says that the amps are sold out. When do we get them? Is there a way to pre-order?

Wait, does that mean the 'week 11' batch sold out and the fourth batch is scheduled for week 18, or did the week 11 batch get pushed back to week 18? Can somebody from hypex please confirm this.

It's out of stock but, if you login on their webshop, you can place what is actually a preorder.

For week 18 ? I think the service could be better around ordering ! I have placed an order 1 month ago and they do not write anything about when they are able to deliver !

 

[TheShaman]

Yes, order placed now will probably be delivered @ week 18.
At least that's my understanding.

At that moment it said week 11.

I thought it was pretty clear. Orders placed before the recent change to week 18 will be ready around week 11. Orders made now will be around week 18.

That's correct....I'm sorry the sales is much higher as we expected...

We'll discuss to increase volume of the batches.

 

[Mark Verhoeven]

The product is too good...

How many units per batch have you been running?

 

[Jan-Peter]

How many units per batch have you been running?

We would like to keep this confidential. When I'm back from skiing we'll discuss internally how to increase volume and to get next batch (hopefully) earlier as WK18.
