Meet the 9000P Power Amplifier
Brought to you by Audiolab
The logical development of the 9000Q preamplifier raised the question of system expansion and thus led to the birth of the 9000P - the dedicated power amplifier option for the 9000 series.
Technological Features
A key to the audiolab performance is the Audiolab-standard CFB (Complementary Feedback) topology, which ensures superior linearity and excellent thermal stability, as the idle current is kept independent of the temperature of the output transistors. An all-new and custom specified 320VA toroidal transformer, followed by 4 x 15,000uF reservoir capacity (60,000uF in total), helps the amp to maintain firm control of the music whilst enabling excellent dynamic range.
Power and Performance
The 9000P power amplifier matches the 9000A with a dedicated 100W per channel into 8 ohms, making it the perfect like-for-like accompaniment for the 9000Q preamplifier.
However, following the success and acclaim of the Audiolab 8300MB mono power amplifier option, the 9000P offers dual functionality with bridged-mode functionality, thus converting it to a ‘monoblock’ power amplifier that offers 300W into 8 ohms.
Design and Build
Designed inline with the smart aesthetic of the 9000 series - solidly built and impeccably finished – the 9000P is theperfect match for all 9000 components.
When it comes to power amplifiers, the 9000P stands unmatched at its price point, with few able to rival its exceptional specifications, performance, and quality. Its versatility is a testament to its greatness—whether used as a stereo power amplifier with a preamplifier, streamer, or transport, as an add-on to enhance an existing system, or in a monoblock setup for those demanding higher power. The 9000P truly sets a new standard in the world of audio excellence.
