Rawson Resale......


I've noticed that no one holds onto a Rawson amp for very long. Everyone raves but can't wait to unload it...now that doesn't make sense. Can someone explain this phenomenon to me?

Cdc,
Tim stays busy with his offerings and may not respond right away. He however will give you any info you need before treading the waters. I may be looking to unload a dual mono bpa 300 shorly. Tim built this special and this version has two trannies for true dual mono output.
Well, I appreciate the input and have a fascination for "Class D". But, first and foremost, I'm the typical broke audiophile and that's why I am interested in his products--cosmetics be damned. 8^) (I mean I have a gray metal chassis Decware Zen!)

I just posted a query on the LM4780 and was wondering if anyone has heard those chips implemented?

Thanks.
4780 is 2 3886's on chip. typically the 2 parts are paralleled to create more power for low imp loads. though can be bridged to but need to run low rail voltage so stable for various loads. audiosector and tech-diy sell 4780 kits. i don't make 4780's since my boards are for 3886 and some for 1875, definitely need fabbed board for 4780. plus need to electrically insulate from heatsink. in general easy enough for me to just put two 3886 together myself. lastly, find single 3886 works well enough and only need multichip parallel if driving tough load - in which case you might want to consider a different type of amp to begin with.
Thaks, Tim.....would you characterize the 4780 as a sonic upgrade or basically the same sound?
I have used one of Tim's amps for awhile, and am now in the process of getting another, this one much more powerful than the first, in order to try it on my LS3/5A's. They are power hogs, and I want to try them with more power than is available from my Sugden A21a before I decide whether or not to sell them.
There are as many reasons for buying and selling equipment as there are buyers and sellers - isn't that obvious? The main reason I pursue this hobby is for the sheer FUN of it, and for the love of music. If that's not good enough for some, other pursuits are readily available.
Tim impresses me as an enabler, giving us the chance to listen to different amp designs without breaking the bank, and sharing the experience with those who are like minded.
I liked my Gaincard, but I LOVED my clone at a SMALL FRACTION OF THE PRICE!.
Regards to all...
