THE DESIGN OF THE AMPLIFIER
17
Ultra-low internal resistance due to solid, gold-pla-
ted terminals; for power cables up to 50mm² and
speaker cables up to 6mm².
Interference-free power supply due to optimized
suppression coil up to 300 A with ultra-low internal
resistance.
External connection for BRAX-Power-Stabilizers,
directly connected to the switching transistors,
guarantee exceptional high efficiency and opti-
mum power stabilization.
Eight capacitors, each with 5000μF (in total
40000μF), take care of an extremely high current
impulse load. Especially designed capacitors with
8-times-contacted wound foils minimize the inter-
nal resistance.
High efficiency due to super-fast Schottky-power
diodes with more than 160 A in total.
Especially developed transformers with highly-effi-
cient core materials guarantee a total performance
of more than 1800 Watts.
Optimum power supply of the amplifier transistors
due to newly developed storage coils that bridge
the switching delay dead times.
200 A high-performance switching transistors.
Software-controlled switching power supply for ge-
nerating a distortion-free amplifier driver voltage.
Optimum power supply of the transistors due to
8-times-contacted low-impedance capacitors with
a total capacity of 26400μF.
Best signal processing due to a newly developed
and discretely designed driver.

Below the lateral PC-boards there are in total
32 hand-selected high-end MOS-FET transis-
tors which account for brilliant sound.
Protection electronics
The PSoC controller is responsible for the five
switching power supplies and thus takes care of
a constant power supply of the MOS-FET tran-
sistors. Moreover, it monitors the entire amplifier
by means of the protection electronics. Malfunc-
tions are detected immediately and the spea-
kers are protected.
Power supply for the controllers and its integra-
ted circuits.
Signal inputs with high-end signal condensors
make an essential contribution to a perfect and
pure sound rendition.
Gold-plated RCA (cinch) inputs and outputs gua-
rantee an interference-free signal transmission.
Premium Alps potentiometers adjust the input
sensitivity to the output voltage of the connected
head-unit.
Siemens high-current relays with Degussa-con-
tacts account for the internal and external pro-
tection of the amplifier.
The solid heatsink, made of a special aluminium
alloy takes care of a perfect cooling of power
supply transistors and those of the amplifier.
