AMPED - AAP-1 - High Performance 2-Channel Pre-Amplifier w/ DAC

AAP-1 - High Performance 2-Channel Pre-Amplifier w/ DAC
Experience reference-class stereo amplification with the Amped America AMP 2400. Designed, engineered and assembled in the USA, this state-of-the-art 2-channel Class D power amplifier delivers 400 W per channel into 8 ohms and 800W per channel into 4 ohms. Built around proprietary AUSP™ (Audiophile Ultra Sonic Performance) and HEPS™ (High-Efficiency Power Supply with Auto-Selectable Mains), the AMP 2400 achieves extremely low distortion (down to 0.003 % THD+N at 1 kHz / 1 W) and wide bandwidth (5 Hz to 70 kHz).
With a damping factor exceeding 1000 (<1 kHz, single-ended), balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs, full protection circuitry including universal mains voltage sensing, and a compact 2U rack profile (19″ W × 3.5″ H × 12.25″ D, 23 lb / 10.4 kg), it pairs beautifully with any high-performance preamp or DAC. Whether you’re driving high-sensitivity single-driver monitors or large low-impedance loudspeakers, the AMP 2400 offers powerful, clean, ultra-quiet performance that brings you closer to the artist’s intent in studio, high-end stereo, home-theater or multi-room applications. Amped America backs this amplifier with a robust 5-year parts & labor warranty and supports American manufacturing values for serious audiophiles.
