Commentary

This is a DC stereo power amplifier.

We emphasize phase distortion in the low frequency range and use a DC method without any capacitor that acts as a time constant for the amplifier circuit.
In the high-frequency range, the pre-NF frequency bandwidth is improved to reduce distortion, enabling low-distortion playback over a wide frequency range. In addition, the pre-NF gain is optimally distributed to each stage, making it easier to apply NF to higher frequencies.

We have developed and adopted a dual FET with excellent characteristics, large gm (mutual conductance), and extremely low noise. We are working to improve the S/N ratio.
In addition, by using this dual FET, the drift of output terminal potential due to DC conversion is extremely small and stable operation is obtained.

A 2-monaural construction is adopted in which the power supply for each left and right channel and two monaural amplifiers are arranged on the same chassis. This eliminates the mutual interference of the power supply and greatly improves the separation.

A heat sink of 0.35 ° C / W per channel is installed on the outside. As a very large cooling effect can be obtained, the junction temperature of the power transistor can be kept sufficiently low for use.

Since the relay for protection is used as it is for speaker switching, there is no speaker switching switch, and the decrease in the damping factor due to the contact resistance of the switch is suppressed.
