Nuforce 新旗艦 Reference 20 mono 後級 試聽

nicknick

近期聽到Nuforce頗多大消息，先是Nuforce全力技術支援新公司NuPrime成立及推出第一件產品NuPrime IDA 16，NuPrime雖然與Nuforce關係密切但它本身是一間獨立公司而不是nuforce的一條新產品線名稱。

後來又聽到Nuforce與Optoma合拼組成更大規模更具實力的hifi生產商，當我還未分清每個消息的先後次序就又再聽到Nuforce Reference 20 mono 新旗艦後級推出，而這部新旗艦後級仍然以Nuforce作為品牌名字而不是NuPrime或Optoma，是由名字到機身內涵到聲音調校都屬正宗Nuforce一脈相承的純正血統。

(**補充: 收到NuPrime新聞稿, 終於明白原來Nuforce原班人馬去了新公司NuPrime繼續開發hi-end器材, 而reference20已經是屬於NuPrime公司的產品, 但可以繼續使用Nuforce名稱一年, 由於是原班人馬, 器材的聲音當然保持純正血統。至於Optoma收購Nuforce後會主力流動音響器材的生產線, 原文如下:

NuPrime Company Background

"In 2005, NuForce invented an amplifier that utilizes self-oscillating switching principles in an
analog-based topology (US patent #7,221,216) as a significant departure from bulky Class
A/AB designs using tubes or transistors, and Class-D digital designs that convert signals into
digital data. Thanks in full measure to unique innovations, the NuForce Reference 9 amp
received the Power Amp of The Year 2005 award from The Absolute Sound, a prestigious
American audiophile magazine. Subsequent versions of the Reference 9 received similar
awards in Japan and France. In the years that follow, NuForce has grown to include a full line
of Mobility, Home Theater and Home Stereo products.
In 2014, having decided to focus on mobility products, NuForce sold the high-end line along
with its technology to investors who then created NuPrime Audio. Under the leadership of
NuForce co-founder and original CEO, NuPrime has assembled a design team comprised of
talented engineers who earlier worked on NuForce’s high-end line along with newly recruited
experts in switching-power circuit design."

去年我試聽了P20前級與Reference 18 mono後級（http://post76.hk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=163392），當然是好聲音的典範，順道來我家聽過的朋友數天後就忍不住買了一件回家。
不過當時我奇怪新推出的旗艦前級為何不與後級數字對齊叫做「18」（聽說18的意念是來自nuforce最享負盛名的reference 9 mono的加倍實力之作），讓人有前級比後級更先進高級的錯覺。或者Nuforce當時已留一手正預備將旗艦後級推到更高層次，果然事隔一年多，與P20最配合的名字：Reference 20 mono後級推出了！


Reference 20的外形與Reference 18很相似，取消了機前的透明窗口及由左滑到右邊來開機的設計，反璞歸真就在機前左邊一粒圓形開關制來啟動，右邊一粒小白燈表示已開機，非常簡潔。





新旗艦Reference 20明顯比前作有更強的操控力，由弱音到爆棚都收放自如，所以可以輕易還原出大動態的樂曲。新機的最高輸出一口氣推到400W(8ohm)、800W(4ohm)到1600W(2ohm)，強勁到幾乎是按ohm數直接乘上去。Reference 20聲底是一貫nuforce的清新帶小甜、背景寧靜又大動態，人聲微暖舒服絕對不會冷或硬，而且絕不會因強大推動力就變粗聲，無論在任何音量都依然表現出細緻的聲音變化而且十分線性。

我部AV前級壞咗!!　又冇錢買新機咪冇機用囉！　

你試吓啦，唔試唔知身體好; 講緊你屋企套機仲有好多發揮空間。
如果泊落部mch300se度，部300se咪變咗小朋友囉, 小朋友對住大隻佬, 你話呢?

部前級當然都係一套咁借回來, 我邊有錢玩咁高級器材。

我屋企係有好多發揮空間, 但我荷包唔係呢.....一隻P20 MONO差唔多等於我隻9仔呢.....

P20係前級, 後級係reference 20。

你買實有折啦, 唔駛一隻9仔咁貴!
