just got one of these which will run a rack of 3 amps and link to another rack of three amps.

Botex PSA 322-6 DL – Thomann UK

the 32A on the back can be turned upside down so that the flap doesn't go higher than the top of the unit. RCBOs are 16A C-type. Incomer is 6mm2. Internal wiring seems to be 4mm2 and 2.5mm2 so should be okay to swap some of the breakers for 20A D-type if needed. Might see if I can mount something more useful in the schuko socket cutouts.

GaN material applied to D-series amplifiers!

Interesting indeed.

Sinbosen's amplifiers has always had a strong Home Theater Market following from the days of the Lab Gruppen copies. Their marketing concept appears to be focusing heavily on Frequency Bandwidth (amongst other things) due to the GaN Topology. I am reading many are praising the Admark AD 42 over the Admark AD 60 despite, the Admark AD 42 offers no GaN topology whereas, the Admark AD 60 and, Admark AD 80 does.

So while GaN does offer more benefits than amplifiers offering non-GaN Topology, in the Professional Market, it does not seem to be what many Americans call "A Game Changer" causing an overwhelming difference in the end results. 

Best Regards, 

 

Which is why I'm on the fence regarding the AD60, and AD80.


The AD 80 is too new to receive concrete feedback from end users. The AD 60 is optimized for 4 ohm per channel stereo. For the user that must use 2 ohms per channel, the AD 60 will not fit their requirements. For the user that will never use 2 ohms per channel, the AD 60 gives you the most power for your dollar @ 4 ohms per channel in the entire Admark line that offers a model number lower than the AD 60. 

Best Regards,
