Key Features & Engineering Highlights
Preamplifier Excellence: Features a Balanced AAVA preamplifier incorporating ANCC in the IV conversion stage, lowering real-world volume usage noise by 14% and boosting the rated signal-to-noise ratio over its predecessor.
Massive Power Output: Uses a six-bipolar transistor parallel push-pull Class AB configuration to deliver a formidable 260 W into 8 Ω and 350 W into 4 Ω. (E-5000: 5-transistor parallel configuration, 240W/8Ω, 320W/4Ω)
Upgraded Power Supply: Driven by a newly designed, oversized toroidal transformer and custom high-capacity filter capacitors (100V / 47,000 µF). (E-5000: 100V/40,000uF)
Damping Factor of 1000: Employs ultra-low on-resistance MOSFET switches (0.84 mΩ) in the speaker protection circuit for complete speaker control and precise signal delivery.
Refined Design & Built-In Safety: Features a 10 mm taller chassis, satin-finished aluminum details, gold-plated control bases, and a large analog power meter. Includes comprehensive short-circuit, temperature, and DC detection safeguards.
Included Accessories: Ships with the dedicated RC-260 remote commander.
