Hi all,
I purchased the Audiophonics NC-252MP stereo amp while it was on sale for 396 euros. A few days later I found the NC-502MP module available for $300 and couldn’t help myself. I am listening to the Audiophonics right now, and wondering if I could just.... swap out the board? The size is roughly equal, and the cables should be interchangeable. I was about to order the DIY kit, but I figure I could just upgrade this one and sell the 252MP.
Setting aside how stupid this is, just wondering if there are any drawbacks or things to look out for. I have thermal paste from my pc building days laying around, so that’s not an issue.
Thanks!
PS based on my very limited listening, the Hypex is basically flawless. Pretty sure this is the last amp I’ll be using for a long time.
