In our opinion the amplifier is the muscle of a hi-fi system and we have primed the arcus First Class Poweramplifier to give a record performance.
Of course, the Poweramplifier has taken on board the switching concept of the arcus First Class Amplifier and, therefore, also boasts the arcus FPS ® (FrequencyPowerSystem). This makes it the ideal play companion for high-end audiophile systems.
Designed as a double mono amplifier, the Poweramplifier has an output of 60 W sinus, 13 watt in Class A mode. The outstanding power supply capacity of this amplifier even keeps critical speakers perfectly under control. This lends the music so far unparalleled lightness even during the highly dynamic passages.
The arcus First Class Poweramplifier is suitable both as a single amplifier in pre-power amplifier combinations or as a partner in a high-grade bi-amping system.
In bi-amping the tweeters and woofers/middle tone chassis of a loudspeaker are all driven by their own amplifier. This considerably enhances the sound. Of course, several arcus First Class Power Amplifiers can be connected to each other.
The arcus First Class Poweramplifier can regulate up to +- 6dB individual volume. Thanks to this feature, the amplifier can be perfectly adjusted to your speakers and/or room and acoustic situation.
This advantage leads to an incredible improvement in sound, something which up to now had only been possible by individually tuning fully active speakers.
If the Poweramplifier is connected via the arcus DI ® Bus to an arcus First Class Amplifier, the Poweramplifier will show its level setting on the amplifier display.
The overall performance of the arcus First Class Amplifier and the arcus First Class Poweramplifier can scarely be expressed in technical terms – you simplify have to experience this duo.
