The Artera Stereo produces 140 Watts RMS per channel – ample power for driving first-class loudspeakers, unfaltering even under high dynamic and transient conditions thanks to the patented Current Dumping technology. Special attention has also been paid to the newly developed balanced XLR inputs. The robust connections are yet another string to the Artera Stereo's bow, with an incomparable signal to noise ratio.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eIconic Amplifier Technology\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title3\"\u003eThis compact yet potent power amp sports the latest iteration of Quad’s famous Current Dumping topology, first introduced in the legendary Quad 405 – one of the most lauded British audio components of all time and still the only amp design to have earned a Queen’s Award for Technological Achievement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title3\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title3\"\u003eCurrent Dumping is essentially a method of marrying the superior sonic purity of Class A amplification with the greater efficiency of Class AB. An extremely high-quality, low-power Class A amplifier provides the signal quality, while a high-power current dumping section delivers the muscle to keep the speakers under control. These two amp circuits are combined via a precision network to perfectly impose the finesse of the Class A output onto the power of the current dumper. The result is a relatively compact and cool-running power amp capable of delivering a captivating combination of dynamic power, vice-like grip and sumptuous sonic detail....\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title3\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title3\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"section_title2\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" class=\"table_spec\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGeneral Description\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Amplifier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRated Output Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140W 8 ohm (\u0026lt;1% THD,1kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTotal Harmonic Distortion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0.003% (100W, 1kHz)\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;0.03% (100W, 20Hz-20kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-0.5dB (20Hz-20kHz, ref. 1kHz)\u003cbr\u003e-3dB (20Hz-70kHz, ref. 1kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Sensitivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e980mV(RCA line in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10kohm (Balanced)\u003cbr\u003e15kohm (Unbalanced)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSignal to Noise Ration(S\/N)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e115dB (A weighted, ref. 140W)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Power Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x XLR, RCA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpeaker A+B\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandby Power Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0.5W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (W x H x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e320 x 158 x 338mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Quad","offers":[{"title":"black-ash","offer_id":56215551639938,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"silver","offer_id":56215551672706,"sku":null,"price":1299.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/6652\/0962\/files\/IMG-0039_56a61ca1-1556-421c-9acf-a4b5c53d7e4d.webp?v=1768427607","url":"https:\/\/premiumhomeaudio.co.uk\/products\/quad-artera-mono-power-amplifier","provider":"Premium Home Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
