Maybe it is time to consider that 400W is overkill for any domestic mid-high frequency use, all the more so with high efficiency drivers.

How much is 20db attenuation in WATTS?😛

400W to drive a tweeter or similar is one of the biggest nonsense i can imagine

Nobody is forcing you to do it...

but ok, an 4 ways NCORE based system is probably a dream for most of us...

I guess I am almost there then. My system is what you might call 3/4-way. 4 nc400's per channel, with one for the 2 tweeters per box, one for the two mids, and one each for the two woofers in each box.

It does hurt, as anything you do not need comes across making your life unnecessarily more difficult.

In this case I have to disagree. You might think you don't need it, but the avoidance of all kinds of nasty ground loop issues is a bonus you might not even realize you are enjoying.

I am convinced this is the reason for many diyers looking elsewhere after considering the intricacies of using these buffers.

As already pointed out, there is no "intricacies". If you don't need a differential input, just use it as single-ended.

I might not belong to Hypex's target, but this seems to be a very narrow one owing to management lack of resilience and interest for consumer insight ( basic marketing stuff...), i am afraid. Should take example from Minidsp and others, just my 2 cents...😎

Your comments seem to be based on the false belief that balanced/differential not only doesn't bring any benefits, but actually is somehow harmful. Maybe you could explain what makes you think so?

Well, i find their performance just "standard", and the need to build separate buffers a big hassle, the type of connectors used being also another con for casual builders.

Something like this based on small Ncore modules, ready to use, or with decent how to manuals intended to absolute dummies like me would be great though.

Have you noticed that hypex offers cable sets for all their modules, so that you don't have to worry about the connectors?

If you want "ready to use" there are a bunch of finished products based on hypex technology available... 🙂

Why always insist that their offer matches any consumer needs/likes when it is too obvious it does not? :grumpy:

Why not try to understand what people would like before imposing what they consider the best for them?😕
