UK AMP i had this ampifier for a few months. Did some tests with it and sold it again. As you can see there is a external power supply for the HV. With this option you can get out more power because of a better HV power supply. It can gave you arround 1900w easy. Very nice Amp not expensive, but i’m not alowed to use this kind of power because of rules. The normal HV power supply is not as good as it should be. S that’s the main reason to make it external. Also the conducters are replaced inside the Amplifier.
