Fosi V4 Mono

My loose idea for the Fosi V4 Mono:

I would add:
1. A round VU meter, for example, like the one in the MC331or rectangular,like LC30
2. A larger enclosure—could include a fan inside(?). A bigger enclosure would improve heat dissipation.
3. An RCA subwoofer output.

I absolutely would buy this with the vu meter, no buttons on front. I would definitely add a trigger in and out, as the V3 mono auto sensing can be problematic. No reason to change the current V3 input options and gains, but if the box is bigger already to accommodate the vu meters, then I would prefer to have a built in power supply. I'm also not adverse to higher end amplification as an option e.g. hypex / purifi upgrade options, as well as the standard Fosi offering. Would be a hit.

Don't forget also a similar offering in stereo would go down well (clean front, vu meters, internal power supply). Thanks!
 
I would explore using GaN-FET with switching frequency up to 1 MHz, improve ventilation, add 12v triggers in and auto (but maintain the possibility to chose auto sensing). I would also like to see an integrated PSU instead of an external one. It would also be nice to offer a dual mono amplifier product in a unique case with integrated psu.
 
I like the V3 mono and would not really change a thing but the power supply. Starting with a 48V/5A power supply I upgraded to the GAN power supply. The main point for me is the external power supply. I use an external power switch to power them off, otherwise they are under power and I have to pay this power consumtion.
I would prefer an internal power supply, perhaps a modular one as you can find it in professional network switches.
So you can change the power supply for either more power or if it is broken. Switching off means off and no power supply under full power.

A VU meter could be a nice gimick but is not really necessary.
The greater enclosure could help with heat dissipation, perhaps an internal fan, high quality with very low noise and modular too. If it breaks you can chaging it is easy.
No subwoofer output. If you use a mono amp the only task should be to give power to the speaker.
