A: The Benchmark AHB2 is a high-performance power amplifier designed to deliver exceptional audio quality and precision. It incorporates THX-AAA™ technology, renowned for its low noise, low distortion, and high output power.
A: The AHB2 boasts features such as THX-AAA™ technology, a power output of up to 100W per channel into 8 ohms, an astonishing signal-to-noise ratio of over 130 dB, low total harmonic distortion (THD+N) of less than 0.00013%, and a 0.1 Hz to 200 kHz (+0/-3dB) frequency response. It includes gain settings that are matched to standard balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA signal levels. It also features a high-power bridged-mono mode that provides 380 W into 8 Ohms.
A: The AHB2 stands out with its THX-AAA™ technology, which ensures exceptional audio performance with ultra-low distortion and high power efficiency. It is also known for its transparency, ultra-low noise, and accurate sound reproduction, making it a preferred choice among audiophiles and professionals. Unlike Class-D amplifiers, the AHB2 does not produce elevated levels of ultrasonic noise that may impact the performance of your tweeters.
A: Yes, the AHB2 is capable of driving a wide range of speaker loads. It is recommended for use with speakers of 3 ohms and higher nominal impedance, but is stable into any load. It is fully protected against damage from improper loading and it stays distortion-free when driving difficult phase angles and those frequencies where a speaker's impedance may drop well below the published nominal impedance. Don't let those speaker impedance curves scare you, the AHB2 is well-equipped to drive those low impedances that often occur near crossover frequencies!
A: Absolutely! The AHB2 is a popular choice among professionals in recording studios and mastering facilities due to its studio-grade audio performance and low distortion characteristics. Its accurate sound reproduction makes it an excellent tool for critical listening and audio production.
