Mola Mola is really Jan's from Hypex' product, I am not sure how much Bruno is still part of that project.

Have you considered the HAPI?It was the 8 channel NADAC - I was interested in it because I use an 8 channel Mytek which is getting a bit long in the tooth, although still a current model. Unfortunately the NADAC is 3 times the price and doesn't have an ADC, so the Mytek enables me to play some vinyl every once in a while.

Are you obsessed?420 at work?
Just repercussions of a youth mis-spent. LOLAre you obsessed?
That is only one interpretation, of course.I've been noting quite a number of comments by owners of Kii's that changing the power cord alters the sound quite significantly. This is a shame, because it means that the filtering of the mains is not as good as it should be - full sorted out design should ensure that the sound remains consistent, irrespective of any extra filtering, or lack of such, provided by the cable construction.

Apart from owners 'wanting' to hear a difference, what would be those other interpretations?That is only one interpretation, of course.

I'm sure it's nothing to to do with "overloading", rather that high frequency noise riding on the mains waveform is being attenuated to some degree in different ways by the different cords - that noise should be prevented from having an effect on the Kii's behaviour, by better internal filtering.Let's see some pretty charts and graphs before jumping to that conclusion.
Amplification: 6x250W full-custom Ncore (power consumption in standby < 0,5 Watt) per speaker
6 x 250 = 1500w not considering losses nor unused power
You'd want a sufficiently sized power cord and source.
Of course I have my entire rack on a single 120V 15A outlet (1800W), theoretically way overloaded, and things seem fine here.
Kii's are new, the people buying them want one box solutions - not your average audiophile is choosing these. Of course, this type of reported behaviour is extremely easily tested by well done DBTs - would be interesting if such were to be done.Peer pressure? Group-think?
There are no other interpretations. The above is the correct one.Apart from owners 'wanting' to hear a difference, what would be those other interpretations?
