The New Hypex Fusion Plate amps

[pieter t]

Price level should be considered with relation to other brands, not to a NC400 combo which is heavily overpriced.
More interesting seems to be to discuss differences in quality and options of DSP sections, and what impact these might have on the sound quality of built loudspeaker systems.

1. NC400 is the first generation Ncore, a lot have been improved in the ncore designs.
2. ADC, Dac and dsp are comparable or better than used in the DLCP.

Can you say something about the improvements over NC400. I suppose we talk about the round NC400..

And most important - do they run cooler than the AS ones?

That is the route i want to go.
Replace current amp with 2x FA253.
To get an idea of the amps i will use it first without dsp. just replace the amp.
After that make the current loudspeakers full active with dsp.
Then a new set of speakers, full dsp, if projects above work out well.

Maybe I shouldn’t say so, but when comparing to NC 400, I thought the prices were very reasonable .

Does anyone know what the analog input latency of the new fusion range is?

 

[Antana]

Analogue input latency approximately 350uS
Digital input latancy approximately 1,8mS @ 96kHz input sample rate

 

[maravedis]

Thanks Antana,
How does that compare to the PSC2.400d?

 

[Antana]

The manual of the PSC2.400 says "Analogue Latency 1,12 ms" and "AES Latency 3,58 ms"

So the new Hypex amps are are class D?

I thought they were not, based on what's written on their own website.

Hmmm. I had not considered them for that reason, I guess I'll take another look.

Ncore class D!

Please explain, what made you think it was another topology? And which topology did you think?

I see you changed your posting. What on their website made you think they are not class D?

 

[hugo stiglitz]

any here know what DSP the new fusion amps will use?
DCLP or new one?
is hypex DSP good?

You should read the user guide...
You can find your answer on page 16...

Hi Antana,

are you working for Hypex or have some insights?
I was wondering how I would have access to the internal DSP and toggle between presets, lets say.. is there an app via USB or even a LAN network to access that?

 

[Cableaddict]

Because they wrote of their older class D amps, something to the effect of "These are our class D amps, but they have been discontinued."

And on that same page, under the Fusion amps, it said nothing about class D. (only if you clicked for more info.)

It sort of implied that they had discontinued making class D amps, if you read it a certain way.

Hypex just stated that their DSP wont support FIR filters..
This could be a deal-breaker for quite a few people.
I don't get why you wouldn't support FIR filtering an a 2018 product...

 

[globalplayer]

Cheaper to produce I would assume.
