{"product_id":"accuphase-a-48-pia","title":"Accuphase A-48 pia","description":"\u003cp\u003eFeaturing a six-fold parallel push-pull architecture with power MOS-FETs, as well as ideal gain allocation realized with discrete semiconductors in an instrumentation amplifier configuration, the A-48 harnesses a wealth of advanced technology. Its outstanding performance is exemplified by a signal\/noise ratio of 117 dB, output of 360 watts into 1 ohm (music signals), and a damping factor of 800. The newly designed output protection circuit can detect any short-circuiting of the speaker terminals, for complete peace of mind. This power amplifier is the ultimate instrument for immersive music appreciation on the highest level.  Power MOS-FETs in 6-parallel push-pull configuration Linear output characteristics over entire load impedance range Strong power supply with massive toroidal transformer and large 60,000 uF filtering capacitors Instrumentation amplifier principle High-gain signal input section in discrete configuration Dedicated power supply for signal input section Polarity switching for balanced input connectors MCS+ circuit topologys Current feedback principle in amplification circuitry Protection circuitry using MOS-FET switches High damping factor of 800 Speaker output protection circuit guards against short-circuiting Two sets of large speaker terminals 4-step gain control Support for bi-amping and bridged mode Aluminum top plate with hairline finish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStereo operation (both channels driven): 360 watts per channel into 1 ohm, 180 watts per channel into 2 ohms, 90 watts per channel into 4 ohms, 45 watts per channel into 8 ohms Monophonic operation (bridged connection): 720 watts into 2 ohms , 360 watts into 4 ohms, 180 watts into 8 ohms Total Harmonic Stereo operation (both channels driven)   Distortion: 0.05% with 2 ohm load 0.03% with 4 to 16 ohm load Monophonic operation (bridged connection), 0.03% with 4 to 16 ohm load Intermodulation Distortion: 0.01% Frequency Response: at rated output: 20 - 20,000 Hz +0, -0.2 dB, at 1 watt output: 0.5 - 160,000 Hz +0, -3.0 dB Gain: 28.0 dB (with GAIN selector at MAX) (Stereo and monophonic operation) Gain Selection: MAX, -3 dB, -6 dB, -12 dB  Output Load impedance Stereo operation: 2 to 16 ohms Monophonic operation: 4 to 16 ohms With music signals only, 1-ohm loads are permissible for stereo operation and 2-ohm loads for monophonic operation.
