AMM-1 Doesn't seem accurate, anyone else?


Recommended Posts

About 1/2 of the small class D full range amps on the market today are just a chip amp with a power supply. A chip amp that rolls back like crazy when it gets hot. A chip amp who's design makes it very difficult to heatsink properly. Sound like a recipe for never making rated? Yep. http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/TAS5630DKDR/296-24624-1-ND/2091722

What do you mean by "rolling back"? I agree that those chips are a pain to cool properly.

What's your opion on high-end class-d modules like Hypex?

Rolling back meaning making less power as they get hot to protect themselves.

I'm really not a fan of any class D. I don't see its usefulness unless it is a small battery operated device (ipod)

go google kenwood 9105d and see how many reviews say "this amp randomly gets quiet" or "this amp cuts out when hot and it gets really hot"
