[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8661554, member: 614752"] I don't think Derek is a member on this board, I think I've seen him on SMD. I'll say now what I've said the last 10 years about these cookie cutter Far East amps, until someone actually shows otherwise on the meter/clamp they're all identical plus or minus tolerance differences in components. The point is this is sort of "new" but nothing exciting. It's not an exciting price (like Wolfram), they're not under-rated like Twisted (not that it even matters anymore with more and more orgs using clamped power classes), and they're not even unusual tooling like the stacked board EMF or IA offerings. They're certainly not unique circuits like the Brazilian full bridge designs or the companies who actually do their own R&D. They really are just the newest thing that are the exact same as the last new thing. The high price probably just reflects that he is already an established name in the business and he is savvy enough to understand how to price re-badged cookie cutter Chinese electronics. [/QUOTE]
