I'm looking for a small, cheapish amp to power some old Mission 700s with a PC and take over from the PC speakers. As they're going into a small room, they don't have to be massively loud, and I remembered someone recommending the t-amp a year or so ago.
I looked into the t-amp, and it pretty much seemed to cover what I needed (and was meant to sound very good for the cash), however looking around it seems I've really missed, at least, the original t-amp, and cannot find any in stock in the UK, Gen 1 or 2.
Looking on ebay it seems there are a lot of asian sellers selling thier own version of the Tripath amps, built around the Tripath 2020 or 2024 chips.
I found a review on a trends audio version which looked very good [obviously within reason, these aren't high power amps], but I don't know what the current versions from various parties are like.
Has anyone got experience with these, or any other recommendations?
This is of course presuming I don't find something like a nice Marantz, Harmon Kardon, Cyrus, CA or the like going exceptionally cheaply on ebay! (Got a NAD amp on there a while back for £20)
Thanks all
