The verdict
The C Series Gold is a straightforward, well-built 850W unit with a 10-year warranty.
KitGuru gave it 9/10, praising class-leading load regulation, quality Nichicon capacitors and a quiet fan. It measured under 28 dBA up to 225W and 37.8 dBA at full load.
That's the only lab review I've found so far, so I'll update this as more come in. KitGuru's one complaint was the price.
