The AMP VI is the flagship stereo power amplifier within Accustic Arts' catalogue, sharing chassis dimensions with the brand's MONO VI monoblock while delivering both channels, built with an exceptional damping factor. The AMP VI brings Accustic Arts' most accomplished current engineering to a substantial two-channel format.

Key specs that matter

Input impedance is 16k ohms balanced or 15k ohms single-ended. Output power is 950W into 8 ohms, rising to 1,500W into 4 ohms - matching the MONO VI's per-channel figures across two channels. Gain is 30dBu. Frequency response spans 10Hz to 50,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio is 96dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise at 0.003%, and a remarkable damping factor exceeding 500. At 328 x 530 x 545mm and 82kg, the AMP VI represents Accustic Arts' most substantial current stereo amplifier commitment.

Sound and use context

Expect extraordinary power delivery combined with exceptional control reflecting the remarkable damping factor exceeding 500, representing Accustic Arts' flagship-tier engineering ambition applied to a two-channel format.

Pairing

The extraordinary 950/1,500W output combined with the exceptional damping factor suits any loudspeaker load with real authority.

Alternatives

Accustic Arts' own AMP IV sits below this flagship model at more moderate output, worth considering instead if the AMP VI's extraordinary ambition exceeds what a specific system requires.
