Great condition and fully boxed with remote.
Retailed at £13,000
This Dutch-created dual-mono amplifier uses a modified (this is not an off-the-shelf model) Ncore Class D power from Hypex but the company says that it has injected Class A sonic elements into the design which is why it describes the sound as Class AD. It also contains two transformers, one for the pre-amp and one for the output. There’s a range of quality components in the chassis including Sprague Tantalum, Jantzen Superior Z and ELNA capacitors.
And yet its bulk is not accompanied by fuss. The front fascia is clean, the styling is simple and even the feature-packed rear is (with one exception, see below) well laid out and spacious in arrangement.
