Le voici donc....
Les premiers élements (in english
) sur la V3 (source http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?board=83)"Basically V3 is better than V2 in every way (from measurement and listening test). So regardless of the model that you have (SE or not), the improvement will show. Does it mean that the 9V3 could sound better than 9V2SE? We haven't done the direct comparison, but most likely (similarly, 9V2 outperforms 9V1SE). Obviously 9V3SE will achieve the next level of performance at all frequency range, clarity, resolution, dynamic.
What about power increase? V2 to V3 is an amplifier improvement, not power (slight improvement on 4 ohm load). But this new amp board will benefit from future power supply improvement. Since Nuforce amp has been widely used worldwide with many speakers and there hasn't been much complain about lack of power, we decided to focus on amp board improvement."
"Everything will be transitioned into V3 and UPGRADE is available to every amp products going back to 2005, even the discontinued Ref 8.
IA-7V3, Ref 9V3, Ref 9V3SE, Stereo 8.5V3 are the new version of the Reference series.
So all the previous IA-7V2, IA-7V1, Ref 9V1, Ref 9V2, Ref 9V2SE, ..... etc can all be upgraded.
When we upgrade your amp, you get a new serial number and face plates (except the integrated) that has V3 logo.
The warranty of the upgraded module is renewed."
"Whatever you spent on accessories or mod, it can't beat the improvement (in cost saving or performance) when we jump from one generation of amp technology to another. $400/unit to upgrade from V2 to V3 ($600 if you're from V1 to V3).
V3 THD has lowered by a few X over V2 in most freq range, bandwidth extended to 130Khz (that might not matter except to demonstrate the capability of the design), SNR is exceptionally good. Will publish more info next week on V3. I think we have achieved a near perfect balance amp (Class-D or not!)."
Un autre point important avec la sortie des modèles de la série 18
Blocs monos Réf 18
mais aussi un préampli P-18
A vos plumes, si vous avez des infos...les CR de la V3 et des produits de la série 18 sont aussi les bien venus ...
