Benchmark AHB2 Black

AHB2 "Tightness, Accuracy and Punch"

"The most identifiable positive trait (there are many) of the AHB2, and that is low end control. Tightness, accuracy and punch."

"The AHB2 has power in spades, especially with two units running in mono mode."

"A single amp in stereo will suffice for most normal situations, and was in full control of all sonic responsibilities with every pair of loudspeakers we threw at it."

"The low end tightness and thrust is just where it should be, and pass though information is the name of the game."

"The topology and overall design hopes to touch on a new direction for more traditional audiophile ways. A “bipolar class AB output stage” is married with class H (hence “AHB2”) and some THX-AAA Technology (Achromatic Audio Amplifier) and makes claims of superior performance to the high-end fav, class A."

Benchmark AHB2 Rear Panel

"The back panel offers up a whole host of connections including balanced in, standard speaker binding posts, NL2 2-pole speaker connections, 12v trigger."

"The sound of the amplifier is true to source and one that takes many queues from the production world of balance and monitoring."

"... will rock the house (or sooth the baby to sleep)."
