Neurochrome Modulus 686 Monoblocks
.
I picked up my 686 Monoblocks yesterday from Joe Henry in Coventry.
I could have built them myself, but when I got a look at Ali's Amps, that Joe built, build quality was first rate and Joe's pricing is fair, for the amount of work involved.
Without a decent place to work, I thought it was easier all round, just to buy them ready made.
Here are some pictures Joe took of mine during the build.

Each unit has 188,000 uF of capacitors in the PSU.

The toroidal transformers are 500VA

Speaker protection is built in.

Final soak test.

The Amps are fully differential balanced circuits so just an XLR input.

The fronts carry just an illuminated on/off switch.

Waiting to be set up in my system, I need to build some stands, so each Amp can sit under its speaker.
Each produces 360w into 4ohm, which is what my Canton CT-1000 speakers present as a load.
They sound great out of the box, but presume they will smooth out a little as everything settles in.

This is what I have in mind for the stands.
