Compared this with a pair of my Benchmark AHB2 power amps and couldn't hear any audible difference. check my other ads as I have put the ahb2 for sale. No longer required as I was very impressed with the Apollon hypex ncx500 stereo amp and ended up buying the same hypex ncx500 in Mono for my fronts and sep
This A$1,999 asking price is fair, sitting just A$6 above the median of A$1,993 from recent AUD comparables and comfortably within the A$1,905–A$2,082 range. It is not a bargain, but it reflects honest market value for this generation of Hypex NCOREx-based amplification, which remains highly relevant despite newer Class D modules emerging.
The Apollon Ncx500 is well-regarded for its articulated, tight bass and ultra-low distortion (0.0002% THD+N), delivering 380W peak into 8Ω with exceptional current capability (28A). Its custom input buffers and dual-mono architecture make it a standout for subwoofer or main-channel duty, offering efficiency and power that few compact amps match. At this price, it’s a solid buying opportunity for enthusiasts seeking high-performance Class D without the flagship markup.
