Oh forgot the Icepower TPA3251 based 100AS2 module. Had that in late 2016 before most people even heard of the chip. And the Icepower Iceegde based 300A2. Had 4 of them a year before publicly unveiled.
I'm not casting your credentials in doubt. I'm asking you if you have any more room up on the cloud you're on.
Speaking of which...Oh forgot the Icepower TPA3251 based 100AS2 module. Had that in late 2016 before most people even heard of the chip. And the Icepower Iceegde based 300A2. Had 4 of them a year before publicly unveiled.
One of the earliest 100AS2 ever, PCB rev. 6144589C pre-production sample, identified by the 33079 quad vs. two 33078 duals for later revisions (to allow for AS1/AS2 simple BOM variants). That must have been 2015 IRRC.
Same for various other pre-production modules from ICEpower and others.
Your're not the only engineer early bird on the planet ;-)
First 2 Purifi 1ET400A versions. Spot the differences. The one on the left is the very first Purifi 1ET400A module.

Nothing could impress you. Green with envy maybe, but not impress.So what? If you want to impress me, show your own designs.
I was going to get that demo board, but the amount of cost to build a custom power supply and motherboard wasn’t worth it for the performance offered. The 300 and 400A2 smoke them, and are turnkey modules.
I could not get them to tell me the current draw of the low power section so I ditched that project. They just didn't seem to know - B&O pointed to Profusion... Rellay strange. But they seem interesting I think. Now they seem to specify it when looking at it...

Ice bricks was a Norwegian company who was later bought out by Icepower. So probably few people there who know all the technical details.I could not get them to tell me the current draw of the low power section so I ditched that project.

Sorry that your are wrong, Buying the latest stuff neither impresses me nor nags it on me anyway as you might hope.Nothing could impress you. Green with envy maybe, but not impress.
Glad to hear what you think is important to yourself.Sorry that your are wrong, Buying the latest stuff neither impresses me nor nags it on me anyway as you might hope.
https://www.soundimports.eu/en/icep...MI59zi9s_w9AIVeY9oCR0SIAN4EAAYASAAEgKzavD_BwERising THD+N with a wide bandwidth out of the range of human hearing gives a flawed result when measuring class D amps. Because the harmonics that cause the rise in distortion are out of the band of human hearing.
I’m not saying it’s total crap, but certainly not the 2nd best amp in the world. Like I said earlier, slightly better than the $35 Icepower 100AS2 amp based on the same class D chip.

Rather the least important. THD+N at 5W/4 ohm/1kHz is probably the least important parameter of any amplifier. Just good to make a new fetish.But why wouldn’t the most important single chart be the one in the headline?

You’re acting although I was targeting you specifically with that remark. Why is that so?Just out of curiosity, do you intend to be so condescending and confrontational, or do you actually think about learning and sharing (maybe more for the former than the latter, in your case)?
