A 3886 chip is ~6$. An Amp built to the TI datasheet 'should' run 10/15$ in parts... Retail. (there are V few bits required).
Grasp the concept of "chip Amp"
Is that what Arcam charges??
Unlikely :-) and Even More likely the bungle the design.
Not even bothering to follow the data sheet schematics.
But Hey! they think they know More than TI.
I don't expect Arcam to survive the decade.
