    Default Odyssey amps

    Is there anyone here using Odyssey amps. I am considering a Stratos power amp. The only thing putting me off is that they a factory direct. There isn't a UK distributor or stockist. They seem to be a lot of amp for the money.

    Steve, a word from the wise.

    Just get yourself a Neurochrome 286 or 686, there have been a couple of 686 builds on the forums recently.

    Just saying; and in my opinion it can be seen as unprofesional to make sweeping statements like that on an audio forum, unless of course you have extensive knowledge and experience of every Amplifier out there, if on the other hand, it is your opinion, then its always better to state that.

    I don't want to get into the build thing Alan. I can only find info about the amp modules online.

    Hi Anthony, hope you are well there.

    Good point about a 'sweeping statement', the fact that it was has me thinking people might realise I have heard a few amps in my time.
    It's not one I have any professional involvement in, in fact I shelled out my own wonga to buy one.

    IME it is the most transparent amplifier out there, having heard/borrowed/designed a lot of different ones/types.
    Without getting into published figures 'it does what it says on the tin' to borrow an advertising phrase.

    That's my opinion, but I certainly haven't heard every amplifier in the world, or am ever likely to, particularly ones that have telephone number pricing.

    Am l right in thinking that the Neurochrome is a chip amp, using the chips like in my LM3886 Gainclone but in multiples for more power?

    Yes but they are more sophisticated than that. The units incorporate distortion cancellation, that's what gives such stellar performance.
