I wonder if Tharbamar smokes a joint just before making his videos as he always sounds super relaxed. 🤪

Why do Chinese amplifiers use mini-XLR connectors for the DC power feed? This type of connector has small pins with a cross-sectional area that is insufficient for the load current demand of the circuit. The B200 amplifier as a power specification of 200W into 4 Ohms. Assuming this is an RMS Wattage then the speaker load will draw around 7 Amps (RMS). Some of the peak current demand will be delivered by the electrolytic capacitors on the amplifier’s supply rails. However, this energy must be replenished by the external switch-mode power supply. Typically, a good quality mini-XLR connect is limited to less than 5 Amps. This mini-connector is just a bottleneck in the power delivery.

Thanks for the review. Why does it have a high res audio sticker on it? It is a pure power amplifier, so this is not relevant. Right?

I didn't think Outlaw gets enough flowers for their components. ATI based topology, very similar features on their 2220 mono block. 200 watts @ 8 ohms, balanced inputs, big transformer in a pancake designed chassis for simple stacking....$399.00. maybe you can do a comparison ?

[seanb]

It seems like small amps can bring the watts…but struggle to deliver current due to power supplies that are not as robust as full sized amps.

I am fine with my $100 Fosi V3 monoblocks. They drive my Magnepans well for ~1/6 the price.

[robertwang]

This mono blocks are very tempting, can you please tell me what is the damping factor. All the normal specs like dynamic range, S/N ratio is just incredible. Thks in advance.

[hammer-and-thumb]

Seems like the only mistake is they priced it too low. I'm really interested in someone to investigate the internals. I've tried Class-D amplification but didn't fall in love with it; I have NCoreX NCx500 monoblocks that are...okay, they sound...pretty good, but there are aspects of soundstage width/depth, bass damping, and placement of images that seem flattened-out compared to my prior Class-AB amp from the mid-1990s, and this is supposedly from the cream of the crop of Class D amplifiers. I am interested to try these amps and maybe even investigate building an ultra high performance outboard power supply for them.

Amazon US has only ONE of these in stock as of 9 pm tonight. Maybe they sold all the rest in the previous 5 hours!

Set them up vs orchard starkrimsob ultra

သောမတ်ရဲ့ ဂါလီယွန် ရှစိ ရဲ့ ‌ဈေးချင်းမကွာတဲ့ power amp တွေနဲ့ ယှဉ်ပြောပေးရင် ပိုကောင်းမှာဗျ

[pumpkinmeerkat]

3 balanced inputs but still can't find a way to get the PSU inside the case...

[yellow_noise]

Great space for PSU improvement. Linear power with solid cap bank, will make this thing sing!

[sim]

Wouldn't be best for a mono amplifier to have only one input?!?

Also, why is the high gain only 22db instead of the regular 23db for balanced inputs?

Is it to artificially help on the AP measurements?

[net_news]

are they capable of moving the Maggies?

[mattmiller]

Great review! I have been interested in these.

Quick take on vs V3 monos? I just got them, but I think they need a nice pre-amp in front of my SMSL 100 pro dac. So got a Topping A90D instead of a pre90 to have an headphone amp and pre amp in this system. So interested in Topping now 😊vs V3M

[turbo]

why did they use TRS balanced inputs ? Does a 3-pin balanced connector just plug in ?

[richardsaila]

Imagine they make an even better amp with better power supply and higher current delivery. Wow!

[surreyguy]

Looking for an Amp for my Musician Knight speakers. Do you think these would be a good match?
Thanks for your videos. Great content.

[RacingAnt]

Would love to see the power output with a multi-tone test, which is a way better approximation of music than a single frequency. Would be surprised if they put out much more than 5 watts before shutting down...
