Not only does the Volt+D have an on board capacitance multiplier but mine came with a second CM to add in series ( see picture below ). So there are two for this dual mono version. According to allo the CM is an added circuit in the PS that rejects spikes and noise to about 60 dbs. "Capacitance multipliers are often used in DC power supplies where very low ripple voltage ( under load ) is of paramount importance such as in class A amplifiers". I have not tried the additional CM yet as I've been so preoccupied with the stock unit. I surmise that the CM's allow the Volts to be used with cheap and sometimes noisy power bricks which would negatively affect the sound otherwise. I'm using a 19V brick which is the recommended power supply for the Volt+D. Down the road I'll probably try it with a linear regulated Astron PSU to see if there's a difference. The +D's sound quality is down right amazing as is and getting better as the film caps burn in.
That looks like a simple DC-DC linear reg circuit to me.
Well I wouldn't be able to come up with it but I'm not an engineer.
I believe Douk Audio is the name of the online store, they sell a variety of Chi Fi gear from different manufacturersIt was being sold under Douk audio so I wasn't sure.
The TPA3118 can take up to 24v but I'm thinking there could be more distortion at that voltage
is there a way to bypass the opamps in the FX502SPRO?
With the original Volt+ I get excellent results from a 12v linear regulated PSU as I don't need the extra power for HE speakers.
No. Dual transformers is to prevent noise-inter modulation distortion. Two channels talking to one another by sharing the same transformewr.How many amps?
Also one thing I don't get about the Volt+D is the whole dual mono concept. I listen to tons of 70's JA Dub and the producers loved to pan sounds between left and right channels. But with dual mono you lose that producer intended effect - Is that right?

I guess I have 8 or 9 TPA amps ( 3110, 3116 and 3118 ) but the new Volt+D is clearly the best of the bunch.
Is it significantly better than the Volt+ ? (with the same power supply and all)
I thought 5 was too many. I still haven't figured out what the difference is between D Class -T Class?I guess I have 8 or 9 TPA amps ( 3110, 3116 and 3118 ) but the new Volt+D is clearly the best of the bunch.
