Unmatched Power and Precision
The XPA-DR3 is not just any amplifier; it’s a high-powered three-channel audiophile power amplifier that brings your music and movies to life. With a staggering 450 watts RMS into 8 Ohms and 600 watts RMS into 4 Ohms, this amplifier is designed to handle the most demanding audio scenarios. Imagine the thrill of feeling the rumble of a movie explosion or the delicate strumming of a guitar, all with stunning realism and impact. The XPA-DR3 ensures that every detail is crystal clear, thanks to its less than 0.1% THD (Total Harmonic Distortion).
Power Supply: The Heart of the Beast
What makes the XPA-DR3 truly special is its custom-configured high-current switch mode power supply (SMPS). This lightweight yet powerful design delivers over 3 kW of continuous power with absolute reliability. Unlike traditional transformer-based designs, the SMPS offers the dynamic attributes you crave without the bulk. It’s like having the best of both worlds-power and efficiency-ensuring that musical peaks are never compressed or limited. You’ll enjoy a performance that’s not just powerful but also incredibly efficient!
Advanced Amplifier Modules for Superior Sound
At the core of the XPA-DR3 are three Differential Reference Amplifier Modules, engineered to provide the ultimate in sound quality. These modules utilize a unique differential input stage that drives a balanced voltage amplification stage, delivering an incredibly accurate and pure audio signal. The result? A listening experience that’s holistic, natural, and powerful. You’ll hear low-level musical details and dialogue emerge from a deep black background, while crescendos hit with both stunning impact and precision.
Class A/B Sound Quality Meets Class H Efficiency
With the XPA-DR3, you don’t have to choose between sound quality and efficiency. Each Differential Reference Module features Emotiva’s fully analog Class A/B output stage combined with a Soft-Switch Class H power supply topology. This innovative design minimizes power consumption at low levels while ensuring that the signal passes cleanly and without clipping when you need it most. The result is greater overall efficiency, cooler operation, and longer component life. It’s like having a personal audio assistant that knows exactly when to kick it into high gear!
Why Choose a Fully Differential Balanced Power Amplifier?
Experts agree that for the best sound quality, dedicated components are the way to go. The XPA-DR3 is designed for a single purpose: to deliver exceptional audio performance. By utilizing a perfectly symmetrical balanced pair of high-performance amplifier modules, the XPA-DR3 cancels out nonlinearity, resulting in remarkably transparent sound with unprecedented smoothness and clarity. You’ll experience your music and movies like never before-every note, every whisper, every explosion, all delivered with breathtaking fidelity.
