The advantage
of “fully balanced XLR-inputs”:
The
advantage of such the “fully balaced design” in our AMP 3 is that we separate
not only the 2 channels but also the signal to separate mains board. Therefore
we ues one main board for the inverting signal (-) and one for the
non-inverting (+). Each channel is build like a mono amplifier but in one
housing. So each channel has its own mains inlet, transformer, power supply
board and 2 mains board. Strictly separate.
This
increases the sound performance because we can minimized negative effects like
distrotion etc. and can improve signal-to-noise ratio to a perfect level. Under
“normal” circumstances (volume level in a living room) the AMP 3 is running in
Class A. When you turn-up the volume, the AMP 3 turns over in to Class AB. Due
to the high power, the speaker impedance should not be lower than 4 ohms.
