According to the link is has fullrange frequency response, but not sure about if the module starts to distort to much running it low.
Can't see any reason why it would - the only real limitation is power.
Hi,
About the tweeter amp/NC100HF in the Fusion amps. Has somebody tried running it with a full-range driver to down to say 500 hz?
They work fine 200Hz up in designs I've worked on. These were 100dB/W/M horns in domestic settings. Bass was both channels of a FA253 or FA503.
is it possilbe for someone with 503 to measure the voltage of the fan and the dimensions? Looks like an 80mm x 25mm fan.
Is it running with 12volt? The connection seems to look like 3-pin-Standard from computer without using the yellow one (speed control). So it looks like fan is just on or off and speed does not get controlled.

Is it also possible to take an foto of the fan inscripten to get some info about the air volume and speed (rpm / cfm / m³h)?
Then it´s maybe possible to take an extremly silent one (be quiet, noctua) from computer area with similar air flow and speed to make it unhearable.

I've designed / tested many speaker systems using the FA503 amplifiers and the only time I'm conscious of fan operation is during stress testing. The fans just aren't an issue during normal listening.
There is a procedure to follow on page 17 of the Fusion amp manual that increases gain. I've done this on a pair of my Fusion amps.
Oh wow, totally missed this! Many thanks!!
For the Fusion 253, the resistor values are:
Rf = 3k3, Rg = 1.8k (Rg = R76 and R162)
See manual posted above how to calculate the gain. If you want to lower the gain, you need to raise Rg.
On the NC100HF tweeter board, you need to look for R76. The resistor values are the same there...

Thanks for this Fedde, I was wanting to reduce the gain. Just FYI the NC100HF R76 resistor value is 4.7k. I did 2 mods, reduced the input voltage as per page 17 of the user manual and removed the gate resistors all 3 channels of my FA253. This cleaned up the gain structure of my system.
For what its worth, low level listening seems to have a bit more resolution but I was expecting a change so maybe there is nothing there .
The amp worked after so that is good! I don't have correct screwdriver to undo the bolts for the input gain change so carefully used a 5/16 hex.

Thanks !
FA-253 DIY "clone"?
I'm not sure that such a question hasn't already been asked ...
Is it actually possible to reproduce (DIY- style...) a fusion amp-fa253 in its functional groups?
More precisely:

More precisely:
- 3x Purifi 1et400a amps including Hypex SMPS's
- Protection circuits / switch-on delay (What would be recommended?)
- A Hypex crossover / DSP would be set!
Hello,
I have a problem and I can't find a solution.
I use Hypex FA503 modules and they overheat.
The fan turns on often, even when the speakers do not work.
Do I just have this problem?
The noise of the fan is disturbing ...
Did anyone find a solution?
Thanks in advance.
