I would say to cost and plus designing a psu takes time and effort that people don’t want to use. Also home equipment is a copy from pro equipment and all pro equipment is made to fit in a standard 19 inch rack so since home copies they use very similar designed circuitry if not an exact copy just they don’t copy the chassis and standard 19 inch rack design. Also I know with professional amps crown xli and xls the power section is shielded fairly decently so putting a separate power block doesn’t make much sense. If you want separate power blocks I do believe Bursonaudio has them for sale and they aren’t so cheap a couple of thousand for a decent one so enjoy and know this if you listen to mostly music pro is the way to go.

@perkri i wasn’t talking about studio, that is more on the recording side than the playback side. Live concerts and stuff made for the pros eventually made it into the home.it happened many years ago and people forget easily the past. Also car audio helped advance drivers to handle much higher wattage than their home counterparts |
@pedroeb yes pro gear can be used for critical listening not so much with the xti for the fan is loud but can be changed, the xls are nearly silent and I only hear a noise when I put my ear right up to the amp and I can hear the power supply. Keep in mind that pro gear puts out more power so the electric might make some noise since electricity makes a humming noise louder or quieter depending on the amount of power being produced |
