Introducing the ACCUSTIC ARTS® POWER III, a masterful audiophile integrated stereo power amplifier designed to meet the highest demands. Enhanced with a D/A converter and optional phono input, it exemplifies premium audio engineering. Immerse yourself in its sonic mastery, driven by 12 meticulously selected Bipolar output transistors for uncompromising quality.
The POWER III is fortified by a 600 VA encapsulated toroidal core transformer, providing a stable power supply with separate windings for preamp and power amp sections. Its double mono design elevates sound quality and performance, ensuring a superior auditory experience. A switchable headphones amplifier adds a touch of luxury, while its vast 80,000 µF power supply capacity ensures exceptional smoothing.
Elevating its prowess, a high damping factor guarantees optimal output reserves. Ingenious protective circuits respond swiftly to clipping, oscillations, and extreme conditions. The heat sink maintains a constant low operating temperature, even during demanding use.
Connectivity options are comprehensive, from balanced high-level inputs (XLR) to configurable unbalanced inputs (RCA/Chinch). Five digital inputs, including USB DSD 512, offer versatile sources. A unbalanced pre-output configurable as RECORD or preamp output enhances flexibility.
Exquisite craftsmanship prevails, from premium gold-plated speaker terminals to stable relays and a microprocessor-controlled volume. Encased in a robust full metal housing, the POWER III radiates sonic purity. The brushed aluminum front panel with chromed brass accents showcases its aesthetic prowess.
Experience effortless control with the ACCUSTIC ARTS® remote control RC II. The ACCUSTIC ARTS® POWER III stands as a testament to artisanal excellence, meticulously “Handmade in Germany,” embodying the pursuit of sonic perfection.
