Looks like everything that this company sells has a 50K price tag. But just focusing on the power amps, does anyone know anything about it ?? Why would you pay that much for an amp ??

Hello
Looking at the data sheet founded on their web site, it's a mosfet output, class A at low level and class AB at higher lever.
Maby they will be at the 2010 Montreal Audio Show, if so I will try to listen to this amp. But the price are way to high and for me they look like those electric heater sold at Canadian Tire.

If it's really owned by Continuum, then the real owner is David Payes, a property developer and serious audiophile living in Melbourne, Australia.

wih such a price tag, don t know if it s a serious audiophile,
but sure the guy is more than a very serious moneyphile...

Sheesh.

Yeh I thunk you'll find the word you wanted was precision.

It looks like the air filter panels in post #9 would be excelent to precondition the air
going to the heatsinks to ensure microphonics caused by random dust particles don't
color the sound!

Many of these higher end units contain materiel's that are expensive beyond belief. Not talking un-obtanium, as that is used only on old British sports cars. Could it be they were built to US Government spec? Like a hammer, the law said it had to be made with certified domestic materials, so someone had to watch the tree grow before it could be made into a hickory stick. Costs get passed on. 🙂
