A-965
1050 Watt 7 Channel Main Amplifier
The A-965 is a
7-channel, 80-pound, independent main amp designed specifically
for low impedance loads. With a power supply that contains two
huge toroidal power transformers and the capability to unleash
greater than a kilowatt of output power—the A-965 could easily
be used as a poster boy for the concept of “High Current.” But
there is more to this amp than brute force. Each channel, from
gold-plated input to heavy duty output, is built on a separate
circuit board as an independent mono block, a design which
minimizes cross-talk (and facilitates repair in the unlikely
event that should become necessary). The discrete circuitry
utilizes PNP differential input, Darlington current driver and
parallel, pure-complementary, push-pull output. The results? The
A-965 has the delicacy to limit its Intermodulation Distorion to
only 7 parts in 100,000 (0.007% IMD) yet with all channels
driven, the A-965 delivers 160 Watts x 7 at any combination of
frequencies between 20 Hz and 20 kHz with less than 0.09% THD.
