Description: We purchased this direct from Audio Alchemy. It is new and never opened. $2000 new. udio Alchemy created the DPA-1 Digital Power Amplifier to perform not just in today's stereo systems, but in tomorrow's systems, too. The core of the DPA-1 is a wizardly circuit topology that combines the musicality of traditional Class A and Class AB amps with the power, dynamics and efficiency of the latest Class D designs. From a chassis just 10.5 inches wide, the DPA-1 delivers 125 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 200 watts per channel into 4 ohms, plenty enough power even for the largest tower speakers. It might seem like magic, but it's just solid engineering.Pure Class A Input StageThe input stage mirrors those found in many of the world's best and most expensive amplifiers: a Class A topology composed of discrete FETs and powered by a semi-toroidal transformer. This pure analog stage preserves every last detail and every ounce of musicality, and properly amplifies and buffers the incoming signal so it's ready to move on to the output stage.Powerful, Efficient, CoolThe cool-running efficiency of the Class D output stage allows the DPA-1 to deliver maximum performance even in areas with minimal ventilation, such as equipment cabinets and closets. The DPA-1 runs at about 80% efficiency, compared to about 30% for a typical Class AB amp. Power consumption at idle is about 20 watts, compared to 100 watts or more for a Class AB amp with comparable power and sound quality.Key Features· 125 WPC into 8Ω, 200 WPC into 4Ω· Class A discrete FET input stage· Cool-running Class D output stage· XLR and RCA inputs· Switchable gain and mute· Upgradeable to dual mono power supplySpecificationsPower output/channel (0.1% THD+N, 1 kHz) 125 watts into 8Ω-200 watts into 4ΩFrequency response +/-0.25 dB, 20 Hz to 20 kHzNominal THD+N (1 watt into 8Ω) 0.05%Signal-to-noise ratio (1 kHz) 100 dB unweightedInput impedance 100 kΩOutput impedance 0.06 ΩChannel separation (1 kHz) -80 dBGain 20 or 26 dB switchableInputs stereo XLR, stereo RCA, IEC power, 3.5mm triggerOutputs 5-way binding postsAvailable finishes SilverDimensions 3.0 x 10.5 x 11.6 in / 76 x 267 x 295 mm (hwd)Weight 16 lb/ 7.3 kg We have well over 1000 other high end items for sale.
