The S202 Stereo Amplifier is a stereo power amplifier from MSB Technology, sharing the M205's flexible three-position input impedance selection within a two-channel format. The S202 Stereo Amplifier brings MSB's uncompromising engineering to dedicated stereo power amplification.
Key specs that matter
Input impedance offers a flexible three-position selection at 75, 300, or 1,200 ohms balanced, matching the M205. Output power is 200W into 8 ohms, rising to 380W into 4 ohms. Gain is 23.8dBu, also matching. Signal-to-noise ratio exceeds an exceptional 130dB. Maximum power consumption is a modest 90W. At 404 x 483 x 165mm and 41kg, the S202 Stereo Amplifier shares the M205's chassis dimensions and mass exactly within a two-channel configuration.
Sound and use context
Expect exceptionally clean amplification reflecting the exceptional over-130dB signal-to-noise figure combined with the modest power consumption, consistent with MSB's broader uncompromising engineering philosophy.
Pairing
MSB's own preamplifier and DAC catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings for coherently voiced, entirely MSB-based system.
Alternatives
MSB's own S500 Stereo Amplifier offers a considerably more powerful alternative within the same broader power amplifier catalogue.
