The Wattson Audio Madison AMPLIFIER integrated amplifier is presented – created in cooperation with CH Precision. The model has an input impedance of 100 kOhms and operates in the widest frequency band from 1 to 400,000 Hz. With a 120 dB signal-to-noise ratio and distortion of less than 0.05%, the output power reaches 2 x 50 W per 8 ohm speaker and increases to 2 x 100 W per 2 ohm load.
The Wattson Audio Madison AMPLIFIER was created according to the concept of minimizing distortion and ideal tonal purity of sound. The model can operate as a stereo amplifier, but also allows switching to mono mode or bi-amping to control more demanding acoustics. The device operates in AB mode with little feedback and uses a fully discrete symmetrical amplification stage based on a pair of powerful bipolar transistors for each channel.
The Wattson Audio Madison AMPLIFIER case is made of cast aluminum and guarantees minimal resonances and excellent heat dissipation.
