The New Enleum AMP-23R Amplifier (Successor to Bakoon AMP-13R) Thread

Any idea what my 16ohms would likely produce in terms of watts?

Do you mean the amount of power that amp would output into a 16 ohm load? If so, my careful assumption would be some 10-12 watts or so.

Oh, and remember I mentioned this amp works with hot sources? Well, for those with a DAC capable of adjusting the output voltage, since the amp will take very hot signals, you can turn the input up a little more than you typically might for an extra sense of punch and authority. Just a handy tip for those who want an even more authoritative sound.

Here hot source means input voltage over 2v? :thinking:

Yeah, that’s exactly what I meant and about what I’d guessed. Think my Zu are going to love the Enleum if I could just get to listen to one.

My Chord Hugo TT2 outputs 2.5V and @GoldenOne reckons 2V is an odd point for the Enleum so there appears to be much to look forward to.

I don’t know where you’re located but I found a dealer here in the States (Jaguar Audio) that would do a 45 day in home trial. So it took the unknown out of the equation. I never looked back. I did have an issue with my first unit and Enleum overnighted a new one that day and the dealer sent me a return label to send it directly to Enleum that day as well so they could run diagnostics on it track down the issue. In an email exchange with Soo In it was apparently a corrupted firmware install. Both Soo In and Darin (the dealer) followed up and were great about answering my questions. Also the review KESM posted from Grover Neville at Part time audiophile I thought was dead on in regards to this amp.

UK. There are currently 3 dealers. None within 200 miles and I don’t drive.

Anyone with info on what i may find in heading from TT2-Enleum to Holo May-Enleum? Running DCA Stealth/Expanse on this lovely chain now.

TIA

In terms of power Enleum is more than enough for your Zu speakers, so you should be more than pleased I think :)
