-Considering all the voodoo and insane prices so called "High-End" audio systems introduced to the simple art of listening to sounds/music with the best possible signal reproduction result, it was quite a surprise to find solutions, that would only cost a fraction of "High-End" system, have a virtually linear power-consumption to usage ratio and sound equally well, maybe even subjectively better.+<WRAP round alert> 
 +There seem to be a couple of ebay auctions, selling TA2020 amps and the sellers seem to have put https://apollo.open-resource.org/mission:tech:odyssey:audio into the description. Those auctions are in no way affiliated with Apollo-NG. Please be aware of that, someone just put the URL to our wiki in there, it has nothing to do with this project.

Over the course of 3 years a lot of Audio-Enthusiasts have been sitting here and were always mesmerized by the clarity, dynamic and stage perception, these two setups produce.
  
 Traditional Class A,B,A/B amplifiers simply are no option, since they burn too much power by design and need more than 12V, to produce the necessary amount of power to properly control the drivers.  Traditional Class A,B,A/B amplifiers simply are no option, since they burn too much power by design and need more than 12V, to produce the necessary amount of power to properly control the drivers.
