In Reply to: RE: The trend is towards more OEM added circuitry and away from simply putting a module in a box...nt posted by kuribo on September 19, 2015 at 14:25:43
With the possible exception of Bel Canto, none of those I mentioned are using OEM added circuits, they are using their own proprietary circuits. I don't see that trend. Most of the others rest are just sticking modules in a box.

adding their own circuitry rather than just popping a module in a box...
try it! you know you want to!
Theta is, for $14K. Merrill isn't really,just tweaks one can do at home. Bel Canto is putting a small circuit in front of the module. Big whoop. That's still mostly just putting a module in a box.

Are you familiar with the newer Merrill Taranis? Many of those using the newer nc500 are doing more than simple add on mods...
Bel Canto has their own input buffer and has worked with Hypex to make other customizations- I don't know many average consumers who could design and implement their own input buffer. NAD worked with Hypex to tailor and customize the module and power supply for NAD specifically. Levinson did considerably more as well...

Yes, I know of the Taranis. He's basically using the same PS that's used with the nc1200. His nc1200 amps are still basically just a module. Throw on a pc nd some footers.
Adding an input buffer before the module is still using the module, just like W4S does with the ICE modules, just like d-Sonics. They are still just basically modules. Put it in a box, and declare it "made in US".
