    Default May the NuForce be with you ?

    I've trawled a bit here, and looked at the website. These babies look serieously intresting for a, hmmm, mini system!

    If you own or have heard this amps please chip in.

    Thanks

    I have, mini system stuff they're not! They are absolute power house killers with audiophile toppling levels of transparency and clout. This is Class D amplification at it's absolute finest, especially the 9SE V2.0 monoblocs, superb amps.

    They are rather better than what you'd find in a mini system but not really my cup of tea. But then I'm into valves.

    This system put together at Audio Affair in Birmingham by hiaudio includes the Nuforce amps:

    I came across a set of these at the Northern show last year.

    They were driving some diminutive Robson acoustics speakers with ribbon tweeters, have to say that from my recollection that system sounded mighty fine, and certainly had plenty of grunt. Agree that they do look mighty fine, copper coloured nice looking boxes on that occasion.

    Mighty nice system that Hmmmmmmmm

    There are those like Len Gregory ( Cartridgeman ) who say that the 9SEs are the only amps to come close to his custom valve amps

    OK, when I said "mini" system that was tongue in cheek. They're small and by audiophool standards not horribly expensive. Not cheap, either. They would also run cool.

    Now what I have to work out is how to get there
