amplifier for orphean horns (Off Topic)

Second all this. I run a Charlize (Klaus, Monica is the DAC) as Klaus. I have nothing to say on valves since I caNot afford a transparent valve amplifier. With a good supply and supply decoupling and good input caps the amps sounds very good.

Class D and T amps are cheap. The price of the Red Wine Audio product is high relative to the cost of parts (including layout, I am sure they do not draw the PCBs but rather buy the modules). The rest covers development, risk, time etc + profit. I am not sure that profit is big once you account for everything, but I am sure that I, Klaus and lots of people here can buy the parts and end up with a comparable amp for no more than 300$.

I'd bet for 300$ max, you'd be able to get a better product, if you're
able to do it by yourself, which won't be at all very difficult to
establish, since the modules are preassembled.
