Hi Grosser09,

• A300 Pro-Kit: including 3pcs 125ASX2 modules, RCA-XLR module(3 channels) and case-kit;

A300 Diy-Kit could run in more modes with different combinatons (4 Ω):

Hi Everyone,

Now we release the latest pricelist of Ghent's Kit, please check the picture in the bottom

1 Story about Ghent's Module & DIY-Kits
ICEPower 125ASX2 module

According to official datasheet, ICEPower 125ASX2 module support following modes:

• SE mode: 120w x 2/ch (4 Ω)
• BTL mode: 450w x 1/ch (4 Ω), via balanced signal input (XLR)

In year 2011, we have released the old-version DIY-Kit (A000 Kit), supported above two modes of 125ASX2 perfectly;

RCA-->XLR module
During year 2011, some friends asked to support BTL mode via RCA input;

Then, we developed RCA-->XLR converting module specific for 125ASX2 module, so that 125ASX2 module could support 3rd mode with it:

• BTL mode: 450w x 1/ch (4 Ω), via RCA Input

Also, our RCA-->XLR module is integrated individually inside case, just get DC24V power-in from 125ASX2 module. This means, you can output XLR signal to other amps while our Kits are running.

DIY-Kits (Basic-Kit , Pro-Kit & Case-Kit)

Basically, we hope to provide different combinations of modules to meet various requirements of HiFi users, with cost-effective prices and max- flexibility combinations:

• A100 / A200 / A300 Kits, mean that kit separately include 1pc / 2pcs / 3pcs 125ASX2 modules
• Basic-Kit and Pro-Kit are completed DIY-Kit, you can assembly it to completed amp easily, but:
  • Basic-Kit include Case-Kit and only 125ASX2 module
  • Pro-Kit include Case-Kit, 125ASX2 module and RCA-->XLR module (also with male-to-female XLR cable, 30mm length)
• Case-Kit means Aluminum case with all cables, connectors (Binding posts, RCA, XLR), switch, screws..etc, everything for assembling completed amp. Case-Kits are for users who already have 125ASX2 modules;

2 Most-Flexibility Combinations, Most-Powerful DIY-Kit
Our DIY-Kits are designed specific for 125ASX2 module, and will fulfill most-powerful functions of 125ASX2 perfectly.

For example, A200 Pro-Kit is a very compact amp, it support following modes to meet your special requirements (4 Ω):

• SE mode: 120w x 4/ch
• BTL mode: 450w x 2/ch, via XLR inputs
• BTL mode: 450w x 2/ch, via RCA inputs
• BTL mode: 450w x 2/ch, via 1/ch XLR input + 1/ch RCA input
• 2.1 HiFi system: 120w x 2/ch (L/R channels) + 450w x 1/ch (Subwoofer)
• Individual balanced signal provider (1/ch or 2/ch), to other amps

So, HiFi users could easily get 2.1, 4,1, 5.1 or even 7.1 HiFi system based on different combinations of our DIY-Kits.

3 About Shipping ways and estimated shipping cost

There are two shipping ways for choosing:

• Postal air parcel, package should be <2kg, about 3-5 weeks
• EMS express service, no weight limit, usually within one week (e.x 3-5 days to USA)

Above ways are standard postal services, so you can check the tracking numbers from local website (e.x USPS.com of USA);


For packages over 2kg limit(e.x A200 Diy-Kit), we recommend to send it via EMS within one package, or divide kits into two separate packages to be send via postal air parcel(but both packages should be <2kg)

• A000 & A100 DIY-Kit, it’s about $20--$30 via postal air parcel, or $40--$50 via EMS
• A200 DIY-Kit, it’s about $25--$35 via postal air parcel, or $50--$60 via EMS
• For Completed-Amp, we have to send via EMS because we can’t divide it into two packages via postal air parcel;

Here is the latest pricelist from 2012-02-01

Hi Ghent,

I enjoyed putting together your amp.
The sound is a bit dark for me. Is it possible to change this? With other modules I can change the input capacitor, or the output filter to get the sound I want.

Thanks
James

Hi James,

Thanks for your message.
Yes, feeling is something personal although ICEpower 125ASX2 is a excellent Class-D amp module.

Our 125ASX2 modules, are totally unused, new module from original factory, so we won't and can't do any changes about module itself.

I will discuss with our technicians about your idea, and will keep you posted if finding some way.
Or, other diyaudio members might help you on it, they are more professinal about DIY tech.

By the way, please contact me directly via windowsxp@vip.163.com, because sometimes I can't received the message from diyaudio forum directly, I don't know why.

Best Regards,
Ghent
