DS-001 Power Amplifier
Brit speaker manufacturer PMC has announced an audiophile Class D, power amplifier and separate power supply, the DS-001.
The compact amp measures just 130 x 215×41mm and can be used in free standing, rack mounted, wall mounted, or speaker mounted configurations. Accessories include a rack mount kit that creates up to eight individual channels.
The DS-001 produces 200 watts into 8 ohms with, PMC claims, a flat frequency curve under all loads due to its intelligent single feedback loop circuit that senses the loudspeaker’s load and adjusts the response accordingly, making output impedance extremely low and bettering many larger, audiophile ‛Class A’ analogue designs.
The amplifier delivers 92 per cent efficiency so reducing current usage and the compact power supply features over current protection and large electrolytic buffer capacitors which allow for large current delivery.
It’s available for 230v or 115v operation with loudspeaker output connections while audio input is via balanced XLR, mains via IEC and gain adjustment controls on the front panel.
The PMC DS-001 will be available later this month.
