Friends of mine replaced their Infinate 8's with 10K's and no complaints so far.

So if we could kindly bring a halt to the thread jacking, and return to the topic title, regarding FFA 10 & Infinite 8 MK2 amps. |

This link has more info on the PSU in the X8 on page 15, still nothing on what type with regards resonant etc: Also, what do you make of their concerns re PFC, (I guess it may come down to the 'the proof of the pudding is in the eating') taken from their 'white paper'?: 'The issue When talking about amplifiers, striving for a unity power factor is not the whole story. Modern power factor correctors can achieve a very good PF figure, often better than 0.9 but they can only do this if their load is more or less constant. To think of this another way, the PFC must continually adjust the shape and timing of the current draw to be the same as the mains voltage which is more or less a sine-wave. If the load is constant this is not too much of a problem. However if the load, in this case an amplifier responding to an audio signal suddenly demands more power, the PFC has two choices : • Ignore the power demand, keep the current waveform pure and maintain the PF close to unity. BUT this means that the amplifier may be starved of the current required and the audio may suffer. • Increase the current draw to meet the demand. BUT this means that the PF will be compromised until the PFC has adjusted itself, which can take tens of milliseconds. In practice the design of the PFC will have to be a compromise between these two conflicting requirements which means that it will not perform as effectively when the amplifier is fed with program material as it does when fed from a stable pink noise or sine-wave test signal. Of course it is almost certain that stable test signals were are used to create the PF number for the products’ specification sheet.' Edited by fatfreddiescat - 29 July 2022 at 9:07pm |

I meant using single phase of a 3PH supply, as opposed to depending on a 32A consumer ring main.
