Commentary
Monaural, fully double balanced circuit, 3-chassis configuration for 2,000W naturally air-cooled monaural power amplifier.
This circuit consists of a fully double-balanced circuit in which all signal paths from input to output are balanced.
This amplifier has a single-channel 3-chassis structure and consists of two amplifiers and a power module whose characteristics are infinitely matched. The two amplifiers are responsible for the + and - signals respectively.
Furthermore, by minimizing negative feedback as much as possible, odd order harmonic distortion is suppressed, and low distortion and Oide force are realized.
By using a wide-range TRANSFORMERS, it is possible to provide the same output for each load while maintaining the wide-band characteristics of 10 Hz to 100 kHz for both 2/4/8 Ω loads.
It also protects the speakers from damage to the system, such as power transistor failures.
Equipped with a Blue Eyes Power Meter that displays the actual output, and the meter can be turned off.
Bi-amplifier connection and tri-amplifier connection are possible.
