Don’t go by specs alone, I replaced my hypex class D with the spm1200mk2 despite the specs being better for the hypex. The chord just sounded more solid.Tech specs don't scream either, it's below par for such a device. Bruno's HYPEX would blow these out of water at 1/10th the price for the pair. As @larkone mentioned it's mostly the case work and Chord brand name. And the people buying would be elite class anyway.
I respect your opinion but it would possibly be the distortion making the amp sound solid in this case.Don’t go by specs alone, I replaced my hypex class D with the spm1200mk2 despite the specs being better for the hypex. The chord just sounded more solid.
