Finnish loudspeaker manufacturer Amphion has announced Amp700, the latest addition to its class-D studio power amplifier range.
Amp700 builds on Amphion’s established amplifier technology, offering greater headroom and tighter controllability over its predecessors. Its robust class-D power section provides 350W channels at 8Ω and two 700W channels at 4Ω. The added power over its predecessor, Amp500, gives Amp700 improved accuracy and tonality across all frequency ranges and lower distortion at even its highest settings. Amp700 has also been synergistically designed with Amphion’s existing studio monitor lines and offers three step adjustments at 0dB, -12dB and -24dB for its input sensitivity, giving complete compatibility with all Amphion studio monitors as well as a wide variety of third-party speaker systems.
In addition, Amphion has developed a proprietary class-A buffer for Amp700 to bring ‘a more pleasing musical character’ to the sound without sacrificing the amplifier’s accuracy or headroom.
‘Amphion’s philosophy has always been to develop innovative, high performance products with longevity,’ explains Amphion founder and CEO, Anssi Hyvönen. ‘By designing Amp700 in synergy with our existing monitor lines, we’ve ensured that any engineer will have a versatile and long-lasting precision tool that will give them completely accurate audio in their studios for many years to come.’
Amp700 is currently shipping, and is available for US$1,800.
