The FLS4 is a stereo power amplifier from Audia Flight, built with an exceptionally wide rated bandwidth and high damping factor. Audia Flight is an Italian manufacturer known for combining Italian design sensibility with strong measured performance, and the FLS4 sits within the brand's more accessible power amplifier tier below its Strumento flagships.
Position in line
It sits below the Strumento n4 and Strumento n4 Signature in Audia Flight's amplifier range. This positioning below the Strumento models suggests the FLS4 offers capable core Audia Flight engineering at a considerably more accessible price than the brand's flagship Strumento series.
Key specs that matter
Rated output is 200 W into 8 ohms, doubling to 380 W into 4 ohms. Input impedance is 7500 ohms for both balanced and single-ended connections. Rated bandwidth is an extraordinary 0.3 Hz to 700 kHz. Signal-to-noise is 110 dB. Damping factor exceeds 650. At 450 x 180 x 440 mm and 43 kg it is a substantial chassis.
Sound and use context
Expect a highly controlled, wide-bandwidth presentation with the clean doubling into 4 ohms and high damping factor suiting demanding loudspeaker loads - a capable performer reflecting Audia Flight's characteristic combination of Italian design and serious measured engineering.
Pairing
The 7500 ohm input impedance calls for a preamplifier with a reasonably low output impedance for the best match, worth confirming compatibility before finalising a purchase.
Alternatives
The Strumento n4 and Strumento n4 Signature sit alongside this model in Audia Flight's amplifier range as higher-tier alternatives, worth the further investment if this model's already substantial specification still leaves ambitions for the brand's flagship Strumento series. Audia Flight extensive dealer network across Italy and beyond makes arranging a direct comparison against the flagship Strumento n4 practical, helping clarify whether the price difference translates into a meaningful audible improvement for a specific system. Given the considerable 43 kg weight, a solid, well-supported equipment shelf is worth confirming before installation. Overall this remains a capable choice within Audia Flight accessible power amplifier catalogue. A dealer visit remains the simplest way to compare this model against the flagship Strumento series.
