"Last time I check, Abyss(Korean company) used to supply the internal boards and heatsink for Tru.
Most people in USA doesn't know about this, but a lot of Car audio hobbyist from Asia(Especially S'pore, Malaysia and Indonesia) knows about this fact.
Here is what they(One of their distributor) said about TRU Amp;
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Abyss were the manufacturer for TRU amplifier until 2005... for certain reason, the contact is terminated by Abyss and TRU moves to another company to work on their amplifier...
The former model of TRU amplifier such as T1, T2, T03, C7, C7T and A Class as well as the active crossovers are most likely 95% the same as Abyss CT series, MFA Series, TB Series and A Class... the major differences I noticed is only the cable used in TRU is Kimber while Abyss using BRAX... a minor components such as resistors or maybe capacitors were modified from Abyss...
As distributor of Abyss in anywhere in the world will struggle against TRU who claims to be the origin... so, I had a discussion with the Abyss International to make changes on the product lines... hopefully starting 2008, we can have a complete different model than before except for the Abyss A Class which is one of our masterpiece...
CT14750 & CT12500 = TRU T1 --> WILL NO LONGER AVAILABLE (Model change to CT2.300 & CT4.400 with higher output power and better speciication)
CT24400 & CT32500 = TRU T03 --> WILL NO LONGER AVAILABLE (New Model still in progress)
MFA7.4 & MFA7.2 = C7.2 & C7.4 --> We have upgrade the components as well as the power output
TB2150 & TB4100 = C7.2T & C7.4T --> Hasn't got any news
CT2000 = Hammer Series J Fairchiled --> NO LONGER AVAILABLE (New Model is Power 1.5K)
Abyss A Class = TRU A Class --> OUR BENCHMARK
------------------------------------------------------------------
From What I heard, abyss terminated their contract with TRU because TRU actually use "Abyss's design" to be manufactured again in China,
Personally, I have listened both Abyss and Tru Amp (The Copper Class A series), I prefer Abyss amp. And ++++ It's a lot cheaper !
Sorry TRU user, Truth hurts.
Just my 2 Cent."
Edit #2: Siden dette innlegget har Abyss skiftet navn til Deep Sea Sound, eh, tror jeg... men forsterkerne ser fortsatt bra ut. Problemet er at jeg ikke finner noen som selger lenger!
