A fully modular, fully differential, fully balanced audio power amplifier with a high-efficiency switch mode power supply (SMPS), independent, fully discrete, dual differential, high current, short signal path Class A/B amplifier modules, Optimized Class H™ power supply topology, and microprocessor-controlled fault protection.
NOTE: This is a fully balanced amplifier with a floating, differential output stage. The output terminals must NEVER be tied together or ground referenced. Doing so will cause immediate damage that is NOT covered under warranty. If you have any questions about speaker compatibility, please contact Emotiva for technical support.
Power Output:
650 watts RMS into 8 Ohms at <0.1% THD.
1000 watts RMS into 4 Ohms at <0.1% THD.
Power Bandwidth (at rated power; 4 Ohm - 8 Ohm load): 20 Hz to 20 kHz (+ / – 0.1 dB).
Broad Band Frequency Response: 20 Hz to 50 kHz +0/-2 dB.
THD + noise: < 0.015%; at 100 watts RMS; 1 kHz; 8 Ohms.
Signal to Noise Ratio (8 Ohm load):
> 122 dB; ref FTC rated power; unbalanced input (A-weighted).
> 96 dB; ref 1 watt; unbalanced input (A-weighted).
Minimum Recommended Load Impedance (per channel): 4 Ohms
(which equals one 4 Ohm load or two paralleled 8 Ohm loads).
Damping Factor (8 Ohm load): > 500.
Input Sensitivity (for rated power; 8 Ohm load): 2.4 V.
Gain: 29 dB.
