Commentary
The E-306 has been refined for further aging, and the sound quality has been thoroughly polished.
The output element of the power amplifier section uses a power transistor for high-output audio, which has excellent characteristics such as high-frequency characteristics, linearity of current amplification factor and switching.
This element is composed of parallel push-pull and mounted on a large heat sink for efficient heat radiation and stable operation.
A current feedback amplifier circuit without phase rotation is used for both the power amplifier and line amplifier.
In this circuit, the impedance of the input terminal on the feedback side is lowered to detect a current, and the current is converted into I-V (current-voltage) by a trans-impedance amplifier to produce an output signal. Therefore, since the impedance of the feedback input part is low, phase rotation hardly occurs and phase compensation is hardly necessary.
As a result, various characteristics can be greatly improved with a small amount of NFB, and excellent dynamic characteristics and natural energy response are realized.
The line amplifier section consists of discrete parts using a current feedback amplifier circuit.
The basic design is an original AccuPhase, a pure complimentary service push-pull design with a relatively simple design. This design reduces the amount of phase compensation for each stage and further improves sound quality.
In order to configure the shortest and straight signal path, a logic relay control relay control method that electronically controls the relay.
The relay uses a closed type relay for the communication industry. The contact is a gold-plated crossbar twin system, which realizes low contact resistance and high durability.
The tone control uses the additive active filter method used in full-fledged graphic equalizers.
In this method, the original flat signal passes straight through, and control is performed by making another characteristic as necessary and adjusting it from the flat signal.
Equipped with a large solid brass machined speaker terminal that can be used with very thick speaker cables.
A large transformer with a large power capacity of approximately 500 VA is used in the power supply section, and two filter capacitors with a capacity of 22,000 μ F are installed.
Equipped with a large peak power meter to monitor output power.
This meter is logarithmic compression type, so you can see a wide dynamic range at one time.
The preamp section and power amplifier section are separated, and a change-over switch and input / output terminal are mounted for use as an independent amplifier.
Equipped with 2 balanced inputs.
Comes with a remote commander that can adjust the volume and switch the input selector.
There is a slot on the rear panel where you can insert an Accuphase Analog Bus (AAB standard) option board.
