The MP-M201 MK.II is a formidable monoblock power amplifier from Vitus Audio, built with staggering mass and an exceptional signal-to-noise figure. The MP-M201 MK.II represents Vitus's most ambitious current statement in monoblock power amplifier engineering.

Key specs that matter

Input sensitivity is 2,000mV, with input impedance at 10,000 ohms balanced. Output impedance is a remarkably low 0.075 ohms single-ended. Output power is a substantial 300W into 8 ohms, rising to 500W into 4 ohms. Frequency response extends up to an exceptionally wide 800,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio exceeds an exceptional 130dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise under 0.01% at 100% global feedback. At 270 x 435 x 610mm and a staggering 65kg, the MP-M201 MK.II represents Vitus's absolute current flagship monoblock engineering ambition.

Sound and use context

Expect extraordinary dynamic authority reflecting the exceptional 130dB signal-to-noise figure combined with the remarkably low output impedance, representing Vitus's most accomplished current monoblock engineering.

Pairing

As a monoblock, two units are needed for a stereo pair, and the remarkably low output impedance handles the most demanding loudspeaker loads.

Alternatives

Vitus's own SM-011 offers a somewhat more accessible monoblock alternative within the same broader catalogue.
