Yes i asked and it works up to 240V.
About the update version, he or she said it was just a new version.
I saw this amp in France far sale on Ebay for 200 euro!!
I paid only 1/3 of this asking price, postage is a little more from hong kong but still cheap.

On the pics on Ebay i see this amp connected to Dynaudio speakers.
I heard Dynaudio and i really like the sound compared to most speakers.
The Dynaudio’s are are only 86 or 87db sensitive but they are only 4ohm speakers.
I don’t know if this amp will drive the Dynaudio’s as good as the Klipsch speakers.
But i would like to test both of these speakers on this amp once i get it.

You have to request the voltage that you need… at least I did.

So is the “Ampone” the same but newer version of the amp4780??

I found a cheap model on Ebay here but i’m not sure what he means with updated version of this unit.

But these units except 100 to 240V input right?

Where can i buy this amp??
I live in Belgium (Europe) so we have 230V.
I’m sure i won’t find it in the shops but where can i order one?

That seems like you are definately underpowered then.. as I can listen to music above conversation level at 9-10 o’clock, and my Jungsons are not very efficient. But this is also in my 13×13 Den.

I just received the Yulong AMP One, and am spending much time breaking it in. It outputs to my Yamaha NS-AP7800 front speakers, (these were part of a 5.1 set, but the tall and slim front speakers are the only ones I use and they sound fantastic). These speakers aren’t especially efficient, and I don’t know what impedance they are. But the volume from the amp at 12:00 setting doesn’t yield much output above conversation levels in my 15×25 foot greatroom. But having said that, the resulting sound quality I am hearing so far guarantees that my current setup I’m falling in love with. This sound quality from this system is so agile and engaging.
I am a Linn-o-phile from way back, and going from any all Linn component setup (Karik 3 CD player, Numerik DAC, 2 LK-100 amps) bi-wired pair of Totem Arro speakers, to now getting a quality of music at a fraction of the cost of my Linn & Totem setup with the Yulong AMP One, Onix XCD-88 CD player and Yamaha HT speakers, I can live with this setup for a long, long time, despite the rather limited SPLs’ I’m getting.

The Missions are more sensitive than my Jungsons, but I’m not sure how current hungry they are… so you might or might not have luck using this amp. Find the impedence curve for your MIssions and see if they dip down to 4ohms or lower much… if they don’t and stay around 6-8ohms or higher you should be fine.

Hello I’m looking for a budget amp to drive my cyrus quattro and a pair of Mission 780s. I can’t afford the smartpower. Do you think the Yulong would suffice? Many thanks.
