| Written by Justblair |  The Sure Electronics Tripath TA2024 Board is out of the box a good value for money amplifier module. However with some careful tweaking it can be made to sound better. This article focuses on the power supply to the Tripath chip and shows some improvements that can be made.

So far I have modified several aspects of the Sure TA2024 board. In this article I look again at the input to the device and swap over the input capacitor. |
| Written by Justblair |  The Sure Electronics TA2024 Amplifier impressed on my first inspection although suffered from Poor DC offset and a slightly dull sound. This is the second modification I have made which is aimed at improving the top end sound of the amp.

In in another article, I showed how the Sure Tripath Boards unacceptable DC could be reduced significantly by removing a pair of resistors from the PCB effectively disabling Sure's attempt at a DC offset reducing circuit. This article takes the modification a step further to eliminate DC offset completely.

| Written by Justblair |  In the last article we looked at the Sure TA2024 amplifier boards, fresh from their box. Amongst the issues identified is that the Sure boards have an issue with DC offset. This article shows how with a very quick modification the DC offset of the boards can be improved upon.

| Written by Justblair |  The Sure Tripath amplifiers offer a Tripath 2024 chip Class T amplifier for $22 plus shipping from Najing, Jiangsu, China. So what do you get for roughly £15 of amp?

| Written by Justblair |  I was contacted recently from Gregory Wisniewski, a reader of the www.justblair.co.uk website. He wanted to share some details of a project that he is quite rightly pleased with and I was more than happy to oblige.
Based on the Sure 2x100watt TK2050 amplifier. Greg has performed similar modifications as I described in my first impressions article. In his own words: |
| Written by Justblair |  Already on www.justblair.co.uk we have looked extensively at a brilliant amplifier from Sure Electronics. The Tripath TA2024 board is a cost effective, high quality amplifier board that in stock form offers value and with a few tweaks can offer serious performance. It was with great interest that I awaited a sample of the recently released “Big Brother” to this amplifier… The Sure 2*100 watt @ 4ohm TK2050 Class-D Audio Amplifier Board (product code: AA-AB013). Well it’s here in my grubby mitts and today I managed to find some time to give it an initial listen.
Available for $39.99 excluding delivery, this board is a pocket money buy, question is can it deliver decent performance at this measly price? |
| Written by Aleš Mravlak |  Aleš Mravlak is another hobbyist who has discovered the joys of the Tripath TA2024 Class T amplifier IC. In his case he started off with a Chinese made module supplied to him by Arjen Helder. This module uses the Tripath evaluation board schematic and as Aleš shows here, there are plenty of potential modifications you can do to this board to get the most from it.

| Written by Justblair | |  I thought that I had made al the alterations to the power lines on my Sure Tripath TA2024 based amplifier modules. However over on DIYAudio.com Albin posted another suggested mod which I have to admit I was sceptical about. The modification affects the topology of the power lines on the Sure Tripath 2024.
