The XP-A1500 MKII is a stereo power amplifier from Extraudio, built with massive output and extraordinary measured performance. The XP-A1500 MKII brings substantial engineering ambition to two-channel power amplification with a remarkably high damping factor.
Key specs that matter
Input impedance is 7,200 ohms balanced or 3,600 ohms single-ended. Output power is a substantial 1,500W into 8 ohms, rising to 2,400W into 4 ohms. Gain is 28dBu. Frequency response spans a wide 2Hz to 110,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio reaches an extraordinary 160dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise at 0.003% with full global feedback, damping factor exceeding 1,000, and maximum power consumption at 1,500W. At 440 x 120 x 400mm and 18kg, the XP-A1500 MKII represents a substantial stereo amplifier commitment.
Sound and use context
Expect extraordinary power delivery combined with exceptional control reflecting the damping factor exceeding 1,000 and the remarkable 160dB signal-to-noise figure - these measurements place the XP-A1500 MKII among the most capable stereo amplifiers available at any price for driving demanding loudspeaker loads.
Pairing
The substantial 1,500/2,400W output and exceptional damping factor suit the most demanding low-impedance loudspeaker loads directly, with genuine authority to spare.
Alternatives
Extraudio's broader amplifier catalogue offers alternatives for buyers wanting a different power output level within the same substantial engineering philosophy.
