Classé Omega Monaural Power Amplifier:
Design Overview
The Classé Omega Monaural Power Amplifier is the
result of repeated listening design sessions. The
sound is fine tuned by the exchanging and mixing
of parts and the adjusting of many specific
operating voltages. The result of these sessions is a
sonic recipe that yields a natural harmonic realism
typical of instruments in a live performance.
Unique Circuit Design
The Classé Omega Monaural Power Amplifier
circuitry design is a completely new design by
Classé Audio. This unique design utilizes 64 output
devices in a special arrangement designed to
maintain internal rail voltage under the most
adverse conditions. The 64 output devices are
divided evenly, 32 being utilized to maintain rail
voltage, and the other 32 utilized as output power
devices. The result of this unique design is an
amplifier which offers uncompromised performance
even under the most adverse conditions.
