Class D Amplifier (Direct Energy HD Amplifier)
LX901
LX801
LX701
LX502
The Direct Energy HD (High fidelity class D) Amplifier has further
evolved as Class D Amplifier to meet the needs of the latest HD
content. With our MOSFET, the Direct Power FET, a simple, high-
power solution is provided to fully enjoy today’s AV entertainment.
The custom bypass capacitors further enhance the advantages of the
Class D amplifier, producing powerful bass while also featuring
gentle expressiveness.
High-Power Simultaneous Multi-Channel Drive
With class AB amplifiers, driving all channels in full power is only
possible for a short time, at around 300 W to 400 W power output.
Pioneer’s Class D Amplifier has plenty of allowance to simultaneously
drive multi-channels at 560 W (SC-LX502) to 850 W (SC-LX901) power
output, letting you fully enjoy dynamic scenes.
Quick-Response Sound
The Direct Power FET is directly
connected to the print circuit
board without any wiring. This
simple structure maximises audio
performance by reduced noise and
improved switching, offering a
quick-responding sound, perfect
for digital content playback.
Direct Energy Design
The Direct Energy HD Amplifier is designed with a simple
structure. By the optimal straight and short transmission path,
signal loss is minimized while also suppressing noise, resulting in
clear sound reproduction.
Improved Circuit Design
On the top two models, dedicated ICs are lavishly used on the
circuit in pursuit of ideal sound. The operational amplifier IC for
processing small signal is set apart from the amplifying section to
prevent mutual interference. This allows clear signal to be
transmitted to the Direct Power FET. As for the SC-LX701/
SC-LX502, they adopt a compact integrated IC with space merit.
The directly coupled IC reduces signal loss and provides precise
signal transmission.
Low Heat Generation
The simple form of the Direct Power FET has the advantage of
improved thermal characteristics. In addition to the upper-side
heat dissipation from the heat sink, the circuit board’s heat
radiation feature is also utilized for downward heat dissipation,
providing efficient cooling for a superior performance.
Eco-Friendly
The power consumption of the Direct Energy HD Amplifier is
exceedingly lower than analogue amplifiers — letting you save
energy without compromising performance.
