VTV Amplifiers has both the Purifi and Hypex amps available at very attractive prices, and it is assembled in and shipped from the U.S. They are sold on-line only AFAIK. I've ordered a Hypex amp from them which should arrive later this week. I'll let you know what I think of it after it gets here.
Purifi Based Amps - Any Opinions?
Hello all,
I've been trying to gather information and spur conversation regarding these class D amp modules over on the AVS forum as well as the Magnepan user group with virtually no interest. I know they're fairly new to the market so first hand experience is probably slim at this point. I thought I'd reach out here also.
I'm going to be diving back into some Magnepan speakers in the near future and I'm considering an amplifier based on these modules or a Hegel class AB amp.
The distortion and wattage specs are really really good on the Purifi modules but I have some concern about the output current capability. Maggie's are known to like high current to sound their best and these modules max out at 25 amps per channel.
Any thoughts and opinions will be appreciated.
Joe
