Bargains on ebay?

I was going to build one but this is tempting http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hifi-linea...item19eabc42dd

Would struggle to buy the chassis for that in the UK.

Hmm, I wonder if one of these would have enough oomph to power a T amp?

12V at 1.25A isn't enough, Dave.

Shame...

The advertiser is obviously a little confused.
This is upcycling:



What's actually going on in that ad is correctly referred to as Upshitting - turning cheap shit into expensive shit.

Up gravity by the looks of it. All the bikes are floating just above the ground. I think they need to sort their physics engine.

Really? Or do you mean maximum when pushing the limits of your ears? I've run one from a 12V battery with thin wires and 1A fuse and they never got warm nor blew the fuse. My kind of loud isn't that loud as I'm fairly near the speakers in my room and set up.

I mean with enough leeway so that you don't run into clipping, which T-amps are prone to doing as they have very little headroom. I built a 14V 2.5A PSU for mine (watch the 12V and 14V models) and I reckon it's just sufficient. Only just, mind you.

Only one way to truly find out I guess... If it doesn't work I'll buy it off you for my DAC

Not much info out there on Quantum amplifiers ? Allegedly developed from Crimson's which liked to self destruct...
