Eric,Hi, Bill
Thanks for your feedback, unluckily, we got all the PCB ready now. May think to add a volume pot next time for a better use scenario.
Thanks,Eric
Do you have plans to integrate a DSP to your amps? Right now there are no good/non expensive DSP plate amps for DIY active speakers. Either you go expensive with HypeX Fusion amps or you go low performance with ADAU1701 ADC.
An ADAU1701 with upgraded ADC & DAC + a good class D amp should be a killer option for active speakers!

Thanks for your suggestion.
Actually, Our product roadmap has an FFA002-V1 variant with MOSFET mounted at the bottom side of the PCB, then transfer the heat to the AL plate, the power rating will be similar to Pascal Tpro, and we'll create the DSP I/O for this board. And It will also be backward compatible with this FFA001-V3 module.
Thanks,Eric
Great! Looking forward to that amp+DSP then! Any ETA? Or more info on the DSP, ADC and DAC choice?Hey, Bro

I would prefer to use the entry level DSP(adau1701) + codec (CS4272) and the ETA will probably around Apr.2023Great! Looking forward to that amp+DSP then! Any ETA? Or more info on the DSP, ADC and DAC choice?

Hard to get better performance than -90dB THD+N with the ADAU1701, no chance of using something like one of the ADAU146x together with some half-decent DAC's?
Would be very nice to see >100dB THD+N throughout the signal chain, that is the biggest reason I would go for an external DSP solution.
Looking forward to the FFA002 and FFA003 designs.

Agree with you that using the inner codec from ADAU1701 cannot get better THD+N performance, that's why I select the external codec to bypass its inner one.Hard to get better performance than -90dB THD+N with the ADAU1701, no chance of using something like one of the ADAU146x together with some half-decent DAC's?

And, thanks for looking into this thread, with your guys' suggestions/support, give me much confidence in our design.

Excellent!!
CS4272 have good performance ADC and DAC, maybe not SOTA, but very good indeed. Manage a good 2 or 3 channel amp + DSP and I assure you you will sell many of them in this forum.
DAC THD+N (dB) | -100 |
ADC THD+N (dB) | -100 |
Agreed, it should be adequate, cost/performance is an important aspect.CS4272
Erica, anything new on status of shipping FFA001-V3 module?Agree with you that using the inner codec from ADAU1701 cannot get better THD+N performance, that's why I select the external codec to bypass its inner one.

We'll make it with an affordable price, no worry 🙂 🙂Agreed, it should be adequate, cost/performance is an important aspect.
And, the design should be without discount~~~
Hi, FriendErica, anything new on status of shipping FFA001-V3 module?
Apologies for the delay here, we'll start SMT next week, and the earliest announcement will be 10 days later.
Thank you everyone for your patience.
Thanks,Eric
Hi, RandyHello, Eric and all. My model for a chassis for this amp is ready and can be viewed in my Uffornica thread
Thanks for sharing your great project here and your free AD for FFA amps. 🙂
Thanks,Eric
Just to keep track of the amps:
FFA001_V3
Size: 90x150mm
Input: 85--265Vac, constant power SMPS
Output: 2x150W @ 4 / 8ohm
also be configured as a high-bass mode--- CH1=300W@4OHM and CH2=120W@8OHM, similar to the Pascal U-PRO2
Price: USD$49.9/Unit, w/o shipping
FFA002_V2 2x350W
FFA002-V1 variant with MOSFET mounted at the bottom side of the PCB
FFA003 1x350W
FFA001_V3
Size: 90x150mm
Input: 85--265Vac, constant power SMPS
Output: 2x150W @ 4 / 8ohm
also be configured as a high-bass mode--- CH1=300W@4OHM and CH2=120W@8OHM, similar to the Pascal U-PRO2
Price: USD$49.9/Unit, w/o shipping
FFA002_V2 2x350W
FFA002-V1 variant with MOSFET mounted at the bottom side of the PCB
FFA003 1x350W
Hi, BillWill FFA003 have single ended or Balanced inputs ?
We will have the RCA or XLR input buffer for the selection.
Thanks,Eric
Thanks for your summary. 🙂 , and some updates here:Just to keep track of the amps:

FFA001_V3 -- The high/bass version, need to change the output MOSFET and adjust the current limiting, if needed, please info. cannot implement on the customer's side.
FFA002_V2 --- universal power supply, size = 95*200mm
FFA003 -- universal power supply, heavy-duty design, convection cooling, size = 90*245mm.
Thanks,Eric
It’s not pretty or exact millwork, but I’m getting there. I need M2(?) screws and nuts for the Neutrik input jacks, and connector headers for the mains inputs and speaker outputs…
