Hi all.
Just saw a picture of an ICEPower 200AC module.
I'm guessing that the slotted white/grey torroid is the output inductor.
I've never seen a commercial product with a slotted core before, and my impression is that it is best avoided because the slot will have a huge radiation that will couple to all other parts and wires.
What am I missing? B&O would not do this without proper evaluation and I'm guessing that the slotted core is the cheapest option for them.
Any guesses on the core-type?
Kind regards TroelsM

wow transistors with no heat-sink, cheap tactics again.
External heatsinks or not, - B&O has a reputation for solid Engineering. I'm sure there is good reasons for the chosen heatsinking and the clotted coil. - I'm just curious as the slotted solution is very unusual.

who said B&O even makes the amplifier.
