4 Specifications

All specifications apply to units in Stereo mode with 8-ohm loads
and an input sensitivity of 26 dB unless otherwise specified.

Standard 1 kHz Power:

 refers to maximum average power in

watts at 1 kHz with 0.1% THD + noise.

Full Bandwidth Power:

 refers to maximum average power in

watts from 20 Hz to 20 kHz with 0.1% THD + noise.

120 VAC, 60 Hz Units:

 refers to amplifiers with dedicated trans-

formers for 120 VAC, 60 Hz power mains.

Performance

Frequency Response:

 ±0.1 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz

at 1 watt.

Phase Response:

 ±10 degrees from 10 Hz to 20 kHz

at 1 watt.

Signal-to-Noise:

 A-weighted, better than 105 dB be-

low full bandwidth power. Better than 100 dB below full
bandwidth power from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

Total Harmonic Distortion (THD):

 Less than 0.05%

at full bandwidth power from 20 Hz to 1 kHz increas-
ing linearly to 0.1% at 20 kHz.

Intermodulation Distortion (IMD):

 (60 Hz and 7 kHz

4:1) Less than 0.05% from less than 158 milliwatts to full
bandwidth power.

Damping Factor:

 Greater than 1,000 from 10 Hz to 400 Hz.

Crosstalk

Power Base-1: Greater than 75 dB below full band-
width power from 50 Hz to 2 kHz, rising linearly to
greater than 60 dB at 20 kHz.

Voltage Gain:

 20:1 ±3% or 26 dB ±0.25 dB at the maxi-

mum level setting (Input Sensitivity switch set to its 26
dB position).

Power Base-1: 51:1 ±12% or 34.3 dB ±1 dB at 0.775
volt sensitivity; 28:1 ±12% or 29.1 dB ±1 dB at 1.4 volt
sensitivity.

Power Base-2 : 64:1 ±12% or 36.2 dB ±1 dB at 0.775
volt sensitivity; 35:1 ±12% or 31.0 dB ±1 dB at 1.4 volt
sensitivity.

Power Base-3: 83:1 ±12% or 38.4 dB ±1 dB at 0.775
volt sensitivity; 46:1 ±12% or 33.3 dB ±1 dB at 1.4 volt
sensitivity.
