theaudiohobbyThe H20 is lttle hard to get but not unobtainium. There is a 30 day trial. Become part of the Grapevine.
What information do you seek: contact info, prices, specs? ? Here it is:
There is no web site yet or slick marketing materials. You can email Henry Ho at
mylienho1@netzero.net
He may take a while to get back to you. He has been having email problems with his ISP. The stereo amp is $2,000 and the mono blocks are $3,000 for a pair.
These units are built when an order is placed. I had to wait about 5 weeks due to problems with a metal work subcontractor. Henry Ho is changing subcontractors and revising his packaging for shipping. The difference for the next batch of amps is that the top, bottom and sides will be a powder coated finish while the front panel is anodized. The earlier amps had all chassis sides anodized.
Specs for the stereo amp from a Apogee User Group Forum posting and my questions to Henry Ho:
250/500 watts 8/4 ohms
117dB dynamic range
THD+N 0.006
Output impedance < 0.005 translates to damping factor of 1600.
Power supply rejection ratio > 60 dB
Output offset < 25mV
Dimensions 13"Wx14.5Dx6H, including the feet
Input impedance 8K Ohm
Gain 27dB
Transformer 1KVA
Power supply capacitance 72,000 uF per channelThe amp accepts single ended or balanced inputs selectable with a pair of rear panel switches. There are 2 sets of binding posts for biwiring.
For info on the H20 driving difficult speakers (Apogees), search over here:

Here is a link to some pictures including my amp:

Credit cards are not accepted but you could use one of those checks that many credit card companies provide.If you email Henry Ho, provide a telephone number where he can reach you.
BTW, I am not connected with H20 - just a customer.
