The Revelation 2 Stereo Amplifier is a stereo power amplifier from Constellation Audio, sitting above the Inspiration 2 within the brand's more accomplished Revelation series, built with an exceptionally low output impedance and substantial output power. The Revelation 2 Stereo Amplifier brings Constellation Audio's more accomplished current engineering to a two-channel power amplification format.

Key specs that matter

Input impedance spans a variable 15,000-3,700 ohms balanced. Output impedance is an exceptionally low 0.05 ohms balanced. Output power is 2 x 300W into 8 ohms, doubling cleanly to 2 x 600W into 4 ohms - a textbook power doubling indicating a robust, well-regulated power supply. Gain spans 12-25.2dBu. Frequency response spans 10Hz to 80,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB, with a remarkable damping factor of 150. At 432 x 584 x 216mm and 25kg, the Revelation 2 Stereo Amplifier represents a serious stereo amplifier commitment reflecting Constellation Audio's more accomplished current engineering standards.

Sound and use context

Expect exceptional control combined with substantial power delivery reflecting the remarkable damping factor of 150 and clean power doubling into 4 ohms, consistent with Constellation Audio's broader uncompromising engineering standards.

Pairing

The clean power doubling into 4 ohms combined with the exceptionally low output impedance suits demanding, revealing loudspeaker loads directly, and Constellation Audio's own Revelation 2 Preamplifier shares the brand's coherent engineering philosophy.

Alternatives

Constellation Audio's own Inspiration 2 Stereo Amplifier offers a more accessible alternative within the same broader amplifier catalogue for buyers wanting more modest output.
