FLAGSHIP INTEGRATED CLASS XD AMPLIFIER
Our flagship integrated amplifier includes 120 watts per channel of Class XD amplification, twin toroidal transformers, and an acoustically damped full metal chassis. All of which helps to bring you pure, clean and powerful sound with outstanding musical detail.
CLASS XD TECHNOLOGY
Class XD is our a proprietary amplifier circuit design which offers superior sound quality currently available from existing amplifier configurations, whilst retaining the high power levels required for truly dynamic performance.
Class XD (crossover displacement), gives the benefits of pure Class A operation at low levels and eliminates the distortion associated with conventional Class B operation as the fragile audio signal passes though the zero crossing point from transistor to transistor. The result is a smooth and linear transition between the two key operating modes, Class A and B.
The benefits of this approach give the sonic refinements of Class A operation and the uncompromising efficiency and power of Class B operation. In fact, the 851A delivers a gigantic 120 watts per channel – enough for the most demanding speaker set-up.
GREATER CONTROL
You can control the amplifier from your iPhone, iPad or iPod by simply docking them in our iD100 digital dock. To suit your unique needs the 851A amplifier offers two main types of connectivity, namely RCA/Phono inputs and two pairs of fully balanced XLR connections.
