SPECIAL DESIGN FEATURES
MACHINED ALUMINUM CHASSIS:
Precision-machined chassis with integrated heat-sinks,
milled from a solid block of aircraft grade aluminum, provides exceptional thermal
heat transfer/dissipation, RFI/EMI shielding, and resonance control..
COMPOSITE CIRCUIT ARCHITECTURE:
Unique composite circuit architecture incorporating
separate Class AB voltage and current gain blocks with no overall negative feedback,
delivers a sensuous grain-free musicality of unparalleled transparency and low level
resolution.
BALANCED TOPOLOGY:
Inherent cancellation effects of balanced topology implemented
throughout all power and input/output circuits ensures greatly reduced distortion and
noise under dynamic signal conditions.
HIGH-CURRENT COPPER BUS-BARS:
High-current, dual polarity, ultra low impedance
copper bus-bars distribute both power supply input current and signal output current,
virtually eliminating intra-circuit EMI signal contamination, greatly reducing internal
wiring, while increasing circuit board rigidity.
HIGH-PRECISION SURFACE MOUNT COMPONENTS:
Extensive use of Lead (Pb)-free, low
temperature coefficient, active and passive surface-mount components results in
significantly smaller loop areas, reduced circuit capacitance and inductance, and
introduces less noise than conventional leaded components.
TRANSFORMER-COUPLING AND ISOLATION:
Transformer coupled input circuitry provides
universal component compatibility and virtually eliminate ground loop noise and RFI/
EMI. Transformer coupling ensures identical amplifier overall gain when using
unbalanced input adapters.
POWER FACTOR CORRECTION:
Power Factor Correction (PFC) in the power supply reduces
AC line harmonic noise pollution and increases AC line power utilization to 99%.
HIGH-EFFICIENCY SWITCH-MODE POWER SUPPLY:
Highly efficient, compact, light weight,
1500 watt DC switch-mode power supply provides optimum voltage regulation for all
circuits and operating conditions, and allows for quiet operation over a wide range of
AC mains power sources.
DUAL-POSITION SPEAKER TERMINALS:
Dual CE approved speaker output terminals, in both
horizontal and vertical orientation, require no tools for secure, low resistance
connections, and allow for easy bi-wiring applications.
