The
X600 mono block amplifier has only two gain stages: a single stage front
end that provides all the voltage gain, and a high current follower
stage. The X600 utilizes the same faceplate, meter, and front-end
circuitry as in the larger X1000. It has a proportionately smaller power
supply and output stage. The X600 delivers 600 watts into an 8-ohm load
and 1200 watts into 4 ohms. The X600 only accepts balanced inputs,
demanding balanced operation to obtain the highest performance possible.
The
very high bias of the X600 allows a tremendous amount of pure Class A
wattage to be delivered from the output stage. This translates into an
amplifier that is both intimate and involving, expressing fine and
discriminating detail, as well as one that instantaneously responds to
challenging musical passages and transients with total control and
seamless integration. The extended frequency range and dynamic
characteristics of the X600 have led it to be the go-to amplifier for
several global manufacturers in demonstration systems of their
cutting-edge source components.
