Audiolab 9000P Power Amplifier
The introduction of the Audiolab 9000P power amplifier marks the logical progression of the 9000Q preamplifier, offering a dedicated power solution for the series. Designed to complement the 9000Q, the 9000P extends the functionality and performance of the range, catering to those seeking high-fidelity audio with exceptional clarity and control. This dedicated power amplifier exemplifies Audiolab's commitment to delivering superior sound quality and system flexibility.
Central to the 9000P's performance is Audiolab's signature CFB (Complementary Feedback) topology, which ensures linearity and excellent thermal stability. By maintaining idle current independently of the output transistors' temperature, this design achieves consistent and reliable operation. The amplifier is powered by a custom 320VA toroidal transformer, paired with 60,000uF of reservoir capacity, enabling it to deliver impressive dynamic range and maintain firm control over musical performance, regardless of complexity.
Single or Dual Set-Up: The 9000P delivers 100W per channel into 8 Ohms, perfectly matching the 9000A and providing seamless integration with the 9000Q. However, the amplifier's versatility truly shines with its bridged-mode functionality, inspired by the success of the Audiolab 8300MB mono amplifier. When used as a monoblock, the 9000P can deliver an astounding 300W into 8 Ohms, offering exceptional power for demanding audio setups. This dual functionality ensures the 9000P meets the needs of both stereo and high-power configurations.
