Three new true digital power amplifiers produce less heat and more power with crystal clear output
Continuing in 2010, both the 7000 and 8000 series will still be available. After a successful year in 2009, the high-end 8000 series has been awarded with the CES Design & Engineering Honors for 2009. The 8000 series contain continuous power output with a maximum of up to 700W RMS and are available in a lineup of 2 Channel, 4 Channel, and Mono configurations. The sleek and small amplifiers continue to allow maximum design and installation options.
JVC Mobile’s KS-AR8001D is a Digital Mono Power Amplifier, featuring continuous power output of 700W RMS x 1 at 4 ohms, or 700W RMS x 1 at 2 ohms. The amp offers a frequency response of 20-300Hz with an MSRP of $549.95.
The KS-AR8002D, a Bridgeable Digital 2ch Power Amplifier, features continuous power output of 150W RMS x 2 at 4 ohms, or 170W RMS x 2 at 2 ohms bridged. The amp offers a frequency response of 5-40kHz. MSRP for the KS-AR8002D is $449.95.
The KS-AR8004D, a Bridgeable Digital 4ch Power Amplifier, features continuous power output of 120W RMS x 4 at 4 ohms, or 130W RMS x 4 at 2 ohms bridged. The amp offers a frequency response of 5-40kHz, and has 4-, 3- or 2-channel operation. MSRP is $549.95.
The three 8000 Series Arsenal digital amplifiers offer the following features:
- THD less than 0.04% at 1kHz
- PWM-regulated MOS-FET power supply
- MOS-FET Output stage
- Max power output of 800W
- Class-D circuit
- Variable input RCA level control
- Variable bass boost control
- Gold-plated RCA jacks
- Gold-plated block terminals
- Thermal/short circuit/overload/DC offset protection circuitry
- Anti-pop circuit
- Control panel on top/cover
- Blue LED illumination
Current Arsenal amplifier models: KS-AR7501D, KS-AR7004, KS-AR7002, and KS-AR7001 will also be retained in the lineup boosting the total Arsenal amplifier lineup to eight models in 2010.
