Description

Modulus-286The Modulus 286 is a 125 W, Class AB, LM3886 based power amplifier with error correction provided by an LM4562 precision opamp. It delivers clear, precise, and fatigue free sound; and distortion below 1 ppm even at full power. This third revision of the Modulus 286 features improved performance, in part due to the further optimized PCB layout. Modulus 286 Rev. 3. 0 is slightly smaller than its predecessor, but shares the same mounting hole locations,

The Modulus-286 is a 125 W, Class-AB, LM3886-based power amplifier with error correction provided by an LM4562 precision opamp. It delivers clear, precise, and fatigue-free sound; and distortion below 1 ppm even at full power. This third revision of the Modulus-286 features improved performance, in part due to the further optimized PCB layout.

Modulus-286 Rev. 3.0 is slightly smaller than its predecessor, but shares the same mounting hole locations, allowing for a direct replacement.

The wiring harness necessary for connecting to the Modulus-286 is included.

Technical Documentation

  • Description
  • Key Specifications
  • Circuit Topology
  • Key Features

    • Fully assembled module made in Canada from parts sourced from authorized distributors in Canada and the USA.
    • World class performance ensured by an error correction circuit with local, low-noise power supply regulators.
    • Power supply agnostic by design. High performance is attained with unregulated power supplies and with switch mode supplies.
    • Differential (balanced) input which eliminates hum and ground loop issues. Can be used with single-ended (unbalanced) sources as well.
    • On-board EMI/RFI input filter and ESD protection.
    • Four-layer PCB optimized for high signal integrity. All ground management is handled on the PCB.

    Build difficulty (1-5): 1 (easy).

    The build video below shows you how to build a Modulus-286 stereo amplifier. Please watch the video to gauge the skills needed.

  • The graph below shows the THD+N vs output power for the Modulus-286 Rev. 3.0 for 8 Ω and 4 Ω load. The sharp jumps in the graph are caused by range switching of the APx555 used for the measurement.

  • The block diagram of the Modulus-286 Rev. 3.0 is shown below.

    The Modulus-286 Rev. 3.0 uses an LM4562 to form a balanced composite amplifier with two LM3886 in parallel. An LM4562 is used for the differential input. 

    The differential input can be used both with differential signal sources (XLR) and with single-ended ones (RCA).

    The Modulus-286 is power supply agnostic by design. This is unique to the Neurochrome Modulus amplifiers. Due to the error correcting composite amplifier topology, the Modulus-286 performs as well on a traditional unregulated linear power supply or a switch mode power supply (SMPS) as it does on a well-regulated laboratory power supply.

    The PCB layout is crucial at the performance levels attained by the Modulus-286. The four-layer PCB employs differential signal routing and carefully designed copper pours and planes to ensure optimal circuit board performance.

Charming Earring Display
Style: TREE, Style: TREE
I’m using this wooden jewelry tree as a display for my fun earring collection, and I love how cute and creative it looks! It comes in three pieces and is easy to assemble, though I did need a hammer to tap the pieces flush. I wish the earring holes were spaced a bit farther apart in some areas, but overall, it’s a charming and functional stand. Makes a great gift for any jewelry lover!

Not worth the money
Style: TREE
This is certainly NOT worth the money. It arrived broken and not worth fixing. Don't waste your money.

Perfect Drawer Organizers—Love the Assorted Sizes
Color: Clear
I really love these drawer organizers. The quality is great, and the assorted sizes are exactly why I decided to purchase them. I used a few inside my vanity to help keep everything more organized, and they work perfectly for separating smaller items without everything getting cluttered together. I like that there are multiple sizes included because it makes it easy to customize the layout for different drawers and products. One feature I really appreciate is the non-slip bottom. They stay in place well and don’t slide around every time I open and close my drawers, which makes a huge difference. The clear plastic design also makes it easy to quickly see where everything is without digging through the drawer making a mess. They feel sturdy and durable, not flimsy like some other organizers I’ve tried. I also like that they can be stacked when not in use, which helps save space. Best for: vanities, makeup organization, bathroom drawers, office supplies, and general home organization Overall, these are practical, well made, and really help make drawers look cleaner and more organized. Definitely happy with my purchase.

Clear, Stable, and Surprisingly Better Than IKEA
Color: Clear
I didn’t expect to be this impressed by drawer organizers, but the Vtopmart 25 PCS Clear Plastic Drawer Organizers really delivered. The non-slip silicone pads actually work — once placed, the trays don’t slide around at all, even when opening and closing drawers frequently. That alone makes a huge difference in daily use. What I love most is how much space they save while keeping everything clearly visible. The clear plastic makes it easy to find what I need at a glance, and the variety of sizes lets me customize each drawer instead of forcing everything into awkward layouts. All the organizers have a solid, usable depth, so items don’t tip over or feel cramped. Cleaning is effortless — a quick wipe and they look new again. Compared to IKEA organizers I’ve used before, these feel more practical, easier to maintain, and honestly more flexible. Add in the great price for a 25-piece set, and this feels like one of those simple purchases that quietly makes everyday life more organized and less frustrating.
