HIGH CURRENT AMPLIFIER. Our premiere amplifier created by legendary designer John Curl has been called by Stereophile,"...a benchmark product against which other amplifiers can be measured."
- Two independent 1200vA toroid power transformers
- Independent transformer windings for driver stage regulators
- Higher driver rail voltages and independent regulation to prevent sag
- 100,000uF computer-grade capacitors in power supply
- Multiple polystyrene bypass capacitors in power supply
- Cascode Class A input stages with matched J-FET pairs
- Hand picked Mosfets in high voltage driver stages
- 24 5OMhz, 15 ampere output transistors, B-matched complements
- Output transistors direct-coupled without inductors
- DC servo direct-coupled audio circuits with 0.3Hz rolloff
- Linear tracking, instantaneous acting DC servos
- Pure Class A operation up to >6 watts output; Class AB-1 thereafter
- Balanced input circuits, XLR connectors, separately switched
- Gold-plated metal structure RCA input jacks
- Multiple temperature sensors and silver-cadmium relay protection
- FR-4 glass epoxy circuit boards, outputs double clad for high current
- Dual mono circuit topology for superior separation past 20kHz
- Proprietary quick-settling bias circuits obviates warmup period
- Silver plated audiophile-grade wiring drivers to outputs
- Precision 1% tolerance Holco and Resista metal film resistors
