8300XP Power Amplifier The 8300XP is a classic audiolab stereo power amplifier, with a sound as clean and crisp as its minimalist exterior. Delivering 140W per channel into 8 Ohms, the 8300XP is capable of driving even the toughest of loudspeakers with sure-footed authority, combining audiolab’s class-leading neutrality with an unerring ability to engage the listener throughout a musical performance. Overview Minimalist exterior Exemplary build quality and reliability ensure that this is a power amp for all seasons, its versatility increased by a choice of balanced XLR and single-ended RCA inputs, bi-wire speaker terminals and a pair of 12v trigger inputs. Internal circuit components are of the highest quality, right down to the power and signal wiring, which is made of ultra-pure OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) copper – all in aid of minimising distortion and maximising sonic clarity. Flexibility is further enhanced by the ability to add a second 8300XP and operate in bridged mode, thus increasing the power output to 480W per channel into 8 Ohms. All audiolab amplifiers are gain-matched, ensuring perfect integration with other audiolab components. Overview Thrilling to listen to and uterly dependable, the 8300XP is a genuine audio thoroughbred – the perfect partner for audiolan’s 8300CD, or peerless M-DAC range. 8300XP Specifications Rate power output 140W RMS (8Ω <1% THD, 1kHZ stereo) 230W RMS (4Ω <1% THD, 1kHZ stereo) 480W RMS (8Ω <1% THD, 1kHZ bridge) Gain 29dB @ 1kHz (stereo) 36dB @ 1kHz (bridge) Input sensitivity 1100mV Input impedance 15k (balanced) 10k (unbalanced) Frequency response -3dB 20Hz - 80kHz +/-1dB 20Hz - 30kHz Total harmonic distortion (THD) 0.004% (20W, ref. 1kHZ) Intermodulation distortion (IM) 0.004% (20W, ref. 7kHz + 60Hz) Transient inermodulation distortion (TID) 113dB (A Weighted, ref. 140W) Signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) 140W / 113dB Damping factor 160 Power Requirement 240V ~ 50-60Hz 230V ~ 50-60Hz 115V ~ 50-60Hz 100V ~ 50-60Hz Dimension (mm) (WxHxD) 444 x 149 x 367 Carton Size (mm) (WxHxD) 550 x 260 x 580 Weight 16Kg (Net) 18.5Kg (Gross)
