Strumento N°8 Mono-block Power Amplifier: Redefining Sonic Perfection
Welcome to the pinnacle of power amplifier technology with the Strumento N°8 Mono-block Power Amplifier. Building on the success of the original Strumento N°4 Stereo Power Amplifier, our relentless pursuit of audio excellence has led us to create a true masterpiece.
Extraordinary Performance
The Strumento N°8 is not just an amplifier; it's a work of art for audiophiles. With its remarkable response speeds, boasting a bandwidth exceeding 1MHz, and formidable output power of up to 2000 Watts, this mono-block amplifier sets new standards. The advantage of having a dedicated amplifier for each channel ensures unparalleled speaker control capability.
Two Strumento N°8 Amplifiers
For those who demand perfection, two Strumento N°8 Mono-block Power Amplifiers outperform even the exceptional Strumento N°4 mk2 Stereo Power Amplifier. We've meticulously fine-tuned every detail, akin to a luthier crafting a musical instrument, where even subtle changes in resistor and capacitor values have a profound impact on achieving sonic perfection.
Crafted to Perfection
The journey of the Strumento N°8 begins with an ultra-high-grade bespoke aluminum cast chassis. Every part undergoes meticulous CNC finishing, manual inspection, and "mirror polishing." Critical areas receive additional hand-finishing, including shot peening and anodization, resulting in exquisite metalwork. The elegant silk-screening process adds the finishing touch.
Uncompromising Circuitry
Within the captivating casework of the Strumento N°8 lies a fully balanced circuitry, meticulously chosen ultra-high-grade components, and a colossal power supply featuring extra low impedance and top-tier capacitors (a staggering 190,400µF on the main power supply alone). Custom printed boards with high-grade surface copper and ultra-pure copper bars in the output stages exemplify Italian craftsmanship at its finest.
Advanced Power Supply
The power supply is a marvel of engineering, comprising two super-high-current supplies for each channel and four stabilized independent stages. The gain stage's power supply is designed for ultra-low noise, featuring ultra-fast rectifiers and extra low impedance capacitors. The main power supply incorporates n.28 6,800µF 63V extra low impedance capacitors, eliminating fuses to preserve sound quality.
Exclusive Design
The amplifier's gain stage is an exclusive Audia Flight design, built on an entirely class A current-feedback circuitry. It is encased in an aluminum box and encapsulated in epoxy resin for thermal stability. The output stage is driven by a colossal 3000VA custom-made audio transformer, encased in epoxy resin and double-shielded within ferromagnetic shields.
Meticulous Detailing
Every circuit and mechanical detail has been meticulously attended to. Power transformers are decoupled on an independent chassis to eliminate potential transformer-induced vibrations when the amplifier sits on a shelf.
The Strumento N°8 Mono-block Power Amplifier is a fusion of aesthetics and electronics, embodying excellence in a single chassis. Elevate your audio system to new heights with this unparalleled masterpiece.
