Is this good or bad??
Mytek slams Hypex in Stereophile Amp Review
Mytek's chief designer, Michal Jurewicz, told me. "Hypex [class-D modules] cannot drive it, the amps collapse, but this Brooklyn Amp does it with ease."

Which is pretty interesting, because the closest I could find to their specs is from ICEpower modules. :)
I've not been able to do comparisons with Hypex vs. ICEpower amps, so I have no idea what this is about. I use both but certainly not with difficult speakers.

The Duntech Sovereigns are specified as being 3 to 4.5 ohms. That is well within what should be the Hypex’s comfort zone. Not if there's a -50'-60' degree negative phase shift also at 3ohms, then the amp could be looking at nearer 1ohm. Mytek ultimately chose an amplifier module from the Danish company Pascal And this could indicate Pascal get them from China and mod them. As are Red Dragon and Rowand Research http://www.pascal-audio.com/amplifier-modules.html http://www.theaudiobeat.com/equipment/pics/jeff_rowland_continuum_2_large_inside.jpg https://www.reddragonaudio.com/products/s500?variant=969867425 https://www.stereo.net.au/forums/uploads/monthly_2017_05/Capture.JPG.eecf146fa0c42ac376beb2799afd581...
