Description

ACCUSTIC ARTS® AMP VI – Our statement in terms of audiophile power amplifiers

AMP VI highlights

  • In response to numerous customer requests for more power, we have once again increased the output power of our reference power amplifier
  • Dual-mono reference power amplifier with completely isolated power supply for each amplifier channel
  • 40 selected MOS-FET output transistors of highest quality
  • 2 magnetically shielded and encapsulated toroidal core transformer of premium quality for highest output reserves
  • Gold-plated contact surfaces (components) improve the contact resistance of the AMP VI
  • Optimum smoothing thanks to more than 220,000 µF power supply capacity; premium quality capacitors (“Made in Germany”)
  • Very high damping factor for perfect speaker control
  • ACCUSTIC ARTS® damping factor linearization (switchable)
  • Professional protective circuit against clipping, HF oscillations and too high DC offset
  • Integrated switch-on current limitation for highest operational safety
  • Balanced Input (XLR) and unbalanced input (RCA) – the inputs are switchable
  • All used components and parts are selected and of highest quality
  • Very high quality, gold-plated bi-wiring/bi-amping speaker terminal
  • Extremely stable and resonance optimized, massive aluminium housing; inlay made of massive, high gloss polished and chromed brass
  • ACCUSTIC ARTS® AMP VI is “Handmade in Germany”
