Trevor,

Keep the spin coming Trevor.Or is it just dogma?

**I deal in facts. I have used power OP amps many times, over many years.
They're cheap, convenient, easy to use and adequate performers. High end
they ain't.


The Gainclone chip amps were evolved by the former Head of Design at
Luxman.This is the man who dared to make tube amps and low negative
feedback SS amps at Luxman during the 1970s when it was very
unfashionable.[The Duo Beta series of SS amps]
His amp and preamp designs are noted for their ability to image
precisely[relatively anyway], which is something very rare in
mainstream equipment from that era.Clearly he discovered similar traits
with chip amps and this motivated him to start 47 Labs.

**The people behind 47 Labs are niave con-men. The site is full of
nonsensical terminology and outright lies.

These things are not perfect,and the component cost might be low-but
they really do put to shame even expensive and well designed SS amps
when it comes to imaging precision and depth.Especially those with high
damping factors and feedback.

**Sure they probably do, since there are quite a few badly designed
amplifiers on the market. There are also a huge number of properly
designed
amps on the market. Many use the same power OP amps that Gainclones use.
Mostly, they're cheap as chips.

SNIP Hearsay and utter, banal nonsense.

**Here's some gems from those liars at 47 Labs:

a.. World's smallest number of parts - 9 parts per channel ( excluding
attenuators )

a.. World's shortest signal pass length - 32 m/m ( including the length of
parts )

a.. World's shortest NFB loop length - 9 m/m ( including the length of the
resistor )

a.. World's smallest filter/condenser - 1000µF, (50W version - 2200µF)

a.. Rigid and compact aluminum chassis construction to release vibrations
smoothly.

Of course, there's much, much more. Let's not even get into the pricing of
these ridiculous products.
