The Canor Virtus A3 hybrid integrated amplifier provides an output power of 100 watts per channel when operating on a load with a nominal resistance of 8 ohms and 150 watts for a load of 4 ohms. The power amplifier uses differential feedback, which reads the audio output at both the positive and negative speaker terminals to ensure maximum linearity.

More components

Integrated amplifiers
Canor Audio AI 2.10
Hybrid integrated amplifier 2 x 150 W with a tube pre-stage and a discrete volume control based on resistive arrays and relay switching. The output stage is transistor, operating in Class D with analog power supply.
Integrated amplifiers
Canor Audio AI 1.10
KT88 tube integrated amplifier in pure class A with operational switching of output stage modes (triode – ultralinear). The offset of the output stage is automatic. There is a possibility of bridging to implement the monoblock mode without an additional pre-amplifier. The volume is controlled using resistive attenuators with relay switching (separate for each channel). In the monoblock mode, the volume controls are synchronized according to the Master-Slave principle.
Integrated amplifiers
Canor Audio AI 1.20
A transistor integrated amplifier in pure class A with an output power of 50 Watts with the possibility of bridging to implement the monoblock mode of 100 watts each without an additional pre-amplifier. The volume is controlled using resistive attenuators with relay switching (separate for each channel). In the monoblock mode, the volume controls are synchronized according to the Master-Slave principle.
Integrated amplifiers
Canor Audio VIRTUS I2
An integrated tube amplifier with an innovative pure class A circuit with automatic current offset of the output stage, which is implemented on KT88 lamps with the ability to quickly switch the "triode-ultralinear" modes. A pair of amplifiers can be used in a bridge connection as monoblocks with double the power.
