ACCUSTIC ARTS® MONO VI

Our statement in terms of audiophile mono power amplifiers

Description

MONO VI highlights

  • In response to numerous customer requests for more power, we have once again increased the output power of our reference power amplifier
  • Extremely powerful mono power amplifier; reference class
  • 20 selected MOS-FET output transistors of finest quality
  • Magnetically shielded and encapsulated toroidal core transformers of premium quality for highest output reserves
  • Gold-plated contact surfaces (components) improve the contact resistance of the MONO VI
  • Optimum smoothing thanks to more than 110,000 µF power supply capacity; premium quality capacitors (“Made in Germany”)
  • Very high damping factor for perfect speaker control
  • ACCUSTIC ARTS® damping factor linearization (switchable)
  • Integrated protective circuit against clipping, HF oscillations,
  • overtemperature 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® MONO VI is “Handmade in Germany”
