I listened JAVA HiFI Carbon double shot INtegrated amplifier in the Warszaw AV show.
It was brilliant, the best class D I have ever listened.
Simply I thought I could not return nCore and Purifi
and have to try other GaN FET amplifiers too.
GaN FET is quite awesome. Many have gone this direction, Atma-Sphere, AGD, Gold Note to just name a few. I have the PA-10's from Gold Note in one of my systems and do love them. However in my heart of hearts I am still a tube guy.
Ause Audio announced their amplifier production plan in the future.
1. P502L (Hypex nCore 500) will be ceased as the current stock has run out, unless any further request to purchase.
Hypex Nilai 500 replaces its role.
2. P952 (Purifi 1ET7040SA) will not be manufactured anymore as the goods in progress are finished.
The custom-made with Hypex NCx1000 will be manufactured as requested, however, the price will be high.
Currently, the Japanese Yen is going down, and further new amplifier models will be higher priced.
On the other hand, It is a good chance to buy their products from outside Japan.
