Audia Flight Strumento N°8
STRUMENTO N°8 Mono-block Power Amplifier
After completing the long development process for the original Strumento N°4 Stereo Power Amplifier we next sought to redefine the mono-block power a
mplifier state of the art. As in its single chassis stereo sibling, the Strumento N°8 is a nearly perfect power amplifier that exhibits incredible response speeds (bandwidth greater than 1MHz), massive output power (up to 2000 Watts), and thanks to its status as a mono-block amplifier unlimited speaker driving/control capability. With the advantage of using a single amplifier for each channel, a pair of Strumento N°8 Mono-block Power Amplifiers are able to surpass the performance of the incredible Strumento N°4 mk2 Stereo Power Amplifier.
With a mono-block power amplifier in mind we’ve used our trained human ears to aide us with circuit refinements (such small, but critical changes include the value of resistors and capacitors). This effort has allowed us to more closely achieve our goal of sonic perfection with the Strumento N°8, much like a luthier uses years of experience, craftsmanship, and keen ear to find the perfect tonal character and emotional response for their instruments.
One stereo Strumento N°4 mk2 or two mono-block Strumento N°8: which do you need? How close to perfection do you picture your system?
