Kenwood XXV-03A power amplifier (limited edition) key features
Both single-channel and four-channel 25th anniversary amplifier models boast the highest sound quality thanks to carefully selected components in packages with a stylish deep-black finish.
Keynotes are the special 25th anniversary capacitors, LAPT power transistors with superior high-frequency characteristics and LSI circuits, all mounted on glass epoxy PCBs. The result is the very finest in sound quality.
Amplifier features specially developed 25th anniversary super-filtering capacitors. Specially selected after extensive testing to provide the best matching, the electrolytic capacitors in this model feature drastically improved leak current characteristics to provide higher audio quality over a longer life and allow more natural sound reproduction that is ever-closer to the original.
High quality glass-epoxy printed circuit board features larger circuit tracks than conventional designs to allow greater current handling capacity and assure stable power output. Improved circuit layout enhances frequency response characteristics and greater board rigidity serves to improve audio quality.
- Amplifier is a Class D mono-block unit, which uses digital switching to amplify audio signals. This design results in high efficiency and less heat
- 1 ohm load capability. You can drive two 2-ohm speakers, or four 4-ohm speakers in parallel with this amp. There are two sets of speaker outputs that are wired internally in parallel, making it easier to connect multiple speakers
- Max power output 1600 watts
- Blue top-mounted LED display can be set to display any of the following information:
- Voltage: indicates the source voltage
- Current: indicates the current consumption
- Temperature: indicates the internal temperature
- Fan: indicates the rotation speed of the cooling fan in 3 steps: Fast, Slow, or Off
- Amp control system allows amplifier functions to be controlled by compatible head units
- Computer controlled cooling fan
- Detachable aluminium dress plate removes to reveal top control panel
- Built-in parametric EQ control of Bass frequency / Gain control / Bass Q factor
- Built-in low variable low-pass filter 50 - 200Hz (24dB/oct)
- Built-in infrasonic filter 15Hz (24dB/oct). Ultra-low frequencies that cannot be reproduced by a subwoofer do not become sound but become unnecessary oscillations, which affect sound by causing distortion. These frequencies also waste amplifier power and can cause damage to speakers. Setting the Infrasonic filter switch to 15Hz cuts signals below this frequency eliminating harmful distortion and protecting speakers
- Phase inverter 0° or 180°
- Variable band reject filter 40 - 200Hz (6dB/12dB) which can reduce standing waves and resonance in the vehicle compartment caused by certain frequencies
- Gold-plated RCA line input / output terminals
- Dimensions (WxHxD) : 386 x 61 x 260 mm
- Supplied with full fitting & operating guide
