The TELOS 5500 NEXTGEN is a formidable monoblock power amplifier from Goldmund, a well-established Swiss manufacturer known for uncompromising, meticulously engineered high-end electronics, built with staggering output power and mass. The TELOS 5500 NEXTGEN represents Goldmund's most ambitious current statement in monoblock power amplifier engineering.
Key specs that matter
Output power is a staggering 1,000W into 8 ohms. Gain is 35dBu. Frequency response spans 20Hz to 20,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Total harmonic distortion plus noise is under an exceptionally low 0.01% at 100% global feedback. Maximum power consumption is a substantial 640W. Damping factor is an extraordinary 600. At 390 x 470 x 930mm and a staggering 260kg, the TELOS 5500 NEXTGEN represents Goldmund's absolute current flagship monoblock engineering ambition, among the most extreme power-amplifier commitments available in high-end audio.
Sound and use context
Expect extraordinary dynamic authority reflecting the staggering 1,000W output combined with the extraordinary 600 damping factor, representing Goldmund's absolute current flagship monoblock engineering.
Pairing
As a monoblock two units are needed for a stereo pair, and the extraordinary 600 damping factor handles the most demanding loudspeaker loads.
Alternatives
Other manufacturers' comparable flagship-tier monoblock power amplifiers offer alternatives for buyers wanting to compare features at a similar price point.
