     Palladium II
    Balanced dual differential operation is achieved by the use of two discrete amplifiers in the single chassis forming the monoblock. This allows the positive and negative balanced input signals to be amplified seperately. By this method of amplification the speaker is isolated from the amplifier's input ground. This assures that the demands for power made by the loudspeaker will have no effect on the rest of the audio chain. The implementation of Class A outputs eliminates any possiblity of crossover notch distortion. The high bias required for Class A operation provides for the bipolar output transistors to operate without switching within the monoblock Palladium's 125 watt Class A power rating. Power is supplied to the circuits by a specially wound 2000VA transformer. This massive transformer allows the Palladium to deliver tremendous amounts of both current and voltage to the loudspeaker. As with all Class A power amplifiers, the Palladium operates in A/B mode into 4 and 2 ohm loads. At 4 ohms the amplifier will generate over 600 watts continuous power, and at 2 ohms it will supply up to a Kilowatt of power. The Palladium monoblock amplifiers are hand crafted in mirror imaged pairs. Each amplifier is assembled, tested and matched to another amplifier. This insures that every Palladium monoblock is identical to its mate.
