Commentary
As a top-of-the-line power amplifier available today, this is a stereo power amplifier developed using Sony's transistor development and manufacturing technology and circuit technology.
A direct coupling method is adopted in which all components are directly coupled except for the coupling capacitor between each stage as well as the output coupling capacitor.
For this reason, power, distortion characteristics, damping factor, etc. do not decrease to the ultra-low frequency range, and excellent characteristics are realized.
Equipped with a limiter switch so that it can be used as a 25W or 50W amplifier.
Two inputs can be used and switching is possible on the panel surface.
Equipped with a speaker change-over switch that can use 2 pairs of speakers.
Input level adjustment knob is mounted.
A special circuit is built in to protect the speaker during abnormal operation.
There was a wooden case and a mounting bracket sold separately.
