[jam]

Anyone built or heard the ZAPpulse 2.1 amplifier by LC Audio?

Yes,

and it is still a powerful transmitter....

Arne,

How did it sound and is it worth investigating?

Arne,

This MIB ?

Also interested. Was considering getting one of these for sub use and evaluating as GP amp at the same time. At the price it starts looking very reasonable for sub use and much cooler/smaller than comparable AB plate amps.

That looks quite interesting, I have bever seen a class D that small before. Would be an interesting project if I had the money to try a module or two.

I wonder how much a single module is. In us dollars.

Call DIY Cable. I think that Kevin is the owner he is also the importer and very helpful.

now i should sell my pair of untouched av800's boards and buy a pair of these little puppies.

what you guys think. av800's or these.

both will be doing the same driving subwoofers later on in life.

MiB...

...reffering to those MiB aka "radio-noise-control", and I do not have a licence for transmitting...

Sound...: OK, clean , quick, controlled, and more sterile than my pa's 96% brew....

P.S.: Nothing wrong, they do as advertized, just boring.

Thanks Arne. Anyone else have any experiences?

I've built an amp around them. I'm quite happy with it- they need good housekeeping (associated PS and whatnot) but with that I think they sound fantastic. I'm going to be trying some modification to them, but I am quite happy with the amp- resolute, nimble, involving, and actually a tad warm..... Very nice indeed!

It seems that the first commercial amp using a ZAP pulse module is on the market. I wonder if it has passed any serious EMC test so far.

Even though the final assembly was made in Switzerland it seems a little exaggerated to call this amp hand-made in Switzerland, IMHO.

Has anyone compared the LCAudio to the Tripath modules? they are in the same price range as far as i know, so it would be nice to know which one performs best. I'm considering buying either lcaudio or tripath (from cadaudio)...
