ESCRIPTION

The P4000 trans•nova DIAMOND (patent pending) amplifier is perfect for many

studio monitoring, touring sound and fixed installations. It features Jim

Strickland’s trans•nova circuitry (patent #4467288) and

his brilliant discovery, Dynamically Invariant

AMplification Optimized Nodal Drive. The DIAMOND

transconductance driver stage combines the linear-

ity of Class A operation with the current headroom

of a Class B system resulting in a significant ad-

vancement in the art of power amplifier design. The sonic

result of all this unique technology is very easily heard. The P4000 presents

a deep, wide sound stage with incredible musical transparency and detail.

New LED indicators allow visually monitoring the operating status of each

channel. The Thermal and Short indicators light when these protection cir-

cuits have been activated. The Clip indicator assists in protecting the speak-

ers by showing when the amp is overdriven and the output signal is distorted.

The Signal indicator lights to show the presence of an audio signal.
