Sorry - the specs above are for stereo single amp - the power is considerably more in mono block configuration

it does not double the power when halving the impedance - but it is apparently stable at 2 ohmNo it’s "not bad" for a class-D, nowhere near doubling still, at least it goes up as the impedance goes down, too many either don’t go up at all at 2ohms or go backwards. "Could" be ok for the OP’s speakers if it's to be believed, and "may" get the best out of the low impedance bass they have. 600 Watts at 8 Ohms 800 Watts at 4 Ohms 1400 Watts at 2 Ohms It will be interesting to see with independent tests if they give it to someone like Stereophile, if they have "underquoted the 8ohm and 4ohm" to make the 2ohm look as good as it is. As many manufacturers are doing that now, that you can see that on Stereophiles bench tests, it one way of making the amp look to be doubling, and it’s wrong (lying) and should be stamped out. Sorry - the specs above are for stereo single amp - the power is considerably more in mono block configuration If these are bridged stereo’s into mono’s? (probably as they give no specs) if so they won’t even do as good as the stereo amp in doubling down. Cheers George |
I have driven my 1 ohm Scintilla's with the NC400 mono blocks from hypex.I use them sometimes in the summer months when it gets to warm for my Krell KRS100 mono blocks consuming 700watts each. Link: https://www.diyclassd.com/product/nc400/11 |
