At this price point, they filled the pcb with garbage capacitors from Jamicon ...lol...Take a look at Marantz PM7000N , it's full of Elna (silmic, cerafine , for audio) series of capacitor from Japan.

it still sounds light years better then the PM7000N ;-)

Had 2 SA20 that I had to send back due to constant transformer hum - only from unit not speakers ( so not a ground or home power issue) . Def a bad batch or design flaw as all my other amps don’t hum. I even bought a IFI DC blocker and didn’t fix the problem and I tried at a different address. Shame as it sounded decent but couldn’t live with it as too distracting. Also when this was first rereleased the review units sent out had Nichicon caps…. Seems a bit shady

The SA20 measures at 104w into 8ohm and 186w into 4ohm though "only" claims 90w (80w in some press releases) It's plenty, plenty powerful, I bought one and a 2021 Node instead of using the Arcam streaming app...which isn't great....also giving DAC flexibility going forwards and saving €500
