The M10 Stereo is a flagship stereo power amplifier from CH Precision, built with an extraordinary signal-to-noise ratio and a substantial two-chassis design. The M10 Stereo brings CH Precision's most accomplished current engineering to two-channel power amplification.
Key specs that matter
Input impedance spans a variable 94,000-600 ohms balanced, with output impedance at 2 x 900 ohms. Output power is 2 x 300W into 8 ohms, doubling cleanly to 2 x 550W into 4 ohms - a textbook power doubling indicating a robust, well-regulated power supply. Frequency response spans an extraordinary 0Hz to 500,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio reaches an exceptional 132dB. Total harmonic distortion plus noise is 0.01% with zero feedback or an exceptionally low 0.002% with full global feedback. Weight totals 78kg plus 53kg, reflecting a substantial two-chassis design separating the amplification and power-supply sections.
Sound and use context
Expect exceptionally clean, powerful amplification reflecting the extraordinary 132dB signal-to-noise figure combined with the clean power doubling into 4 ohms, representing CH Precision's absolute flagship-tier current amplifier engineering ambition.
Pairing
The clean power doubling into 4 ohms combined with the extraordinary measured performance suits demanding, revealing loudspeaker loads directly, and CH Precision's own P1 phono stage or C-series DACs share the brand's coherent modular engineering philosophy.
Alternatives
CH Precision's broader amplifier catalogue offers alternatives for buyers wanting a different configuration.
