I think you will be pleasantly surprised with the thermal characteristics of your ncore modules (along with the sound quality).  They run very cool compared to class AB devices.

Are the heatsinks even necessary? The bare bones kit that you can buy directly from Hypex looks like a sealed enclosure.

Hi jtwrace.
Yes I've seen the Hypex Circle. Shame it is no longer active.  Anyone know why?

Flavor of the month....and we've advanced a few months since they came out.

Any chance that the Hypex Circle could be revived? What would it take?

Well, I want to play it safe.  Unlike  monoblock builds, mine will be 4 modules In one box.

Perhaps forum members who have been using their amps can comment

Not a direct comparison, but I've seen a 2U chassis build with 8 UcD modules before (or maybe it was 4 stereo modules, I don't remember).

I"m sure if you're willing run the circle JohnR would do it.  I'd send JohnR a PM.

As a newbie I'm not really qualified to run the circle. Perhaps one of the more experienced members would like to take it on?

How much time does it require?
