I did directly compare the E-F A3 500 to another amp with which I have compared directly to NC400 (same speakers in all three cases).
In bridging 2xnc400, it will become 600W into 8 ohms.
That does not make it into or similar to nc1200 (which is 400w into 8 ohms).
Is it possible to "sort of bridge" 2xnc400 into 400w into 8ohms instead ??
making the max current into 24A+24A ??

No. But even if you could, you wouldn't gain anything. A single nc400 can drive more than enough current for a 8-ohm load. At 400W, a 8-ohm load only needs 7 A.
Ohm's law still applies, even with class D.
Interesting to hear, considering TID/SID is a non-issue in modern, properly designed amplifiers. Not just not audible, but actually non-existent - the conditions under which you get TID and SID are well understood and easily avoided.
Exactly, and if you really need 1200W then it has got to be a sub, and when you have a sub and need much more power then you might as well just get the UcD2k instead.
TNT, did you post a question, but then delete it? I see it in my email, but not here.
In any case, yes, you do need to connect nAMPON (J9 pin 3) to signal ground (J9 pin 4).

I was so embarrassed because i had not wired my speakon connectors correctly 🙂
Now they play nicely - just tested for the first couple of minutes,. Arvo Pärt / Alina does the honor.
So OK, i can do an internal J9 hookup - good - thank!

Evaluation setup :-D
On a more serious note, I'd like to avoid a metallic case... see if something like this cut it?

found the measurements of the v2: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/vend...-here-bal-bal-se-se-lpuhp-15.html#post3700321
I have built the headphone amp (BAl-BAL) and tried to use it as a output stage to my D/A - but I'm afraid it did not sound enough clean and resolved. It measured wonderful but unfortunately in the end it was not transparent enough for me. This was auditioned in a system using MBL speakers.
