Audiolab 9000P Power Amplifier
The development of the 9000Q preamplifier naturally led to the need to expand the system, giving rise to the 9000P, a dedicated power amplifier that perfectly complements the 9000 series.
Innovative Technology
The 9000P incorporates Audiolab's renowned Complementary Feedback (CFB) topology, which ensures excellent linearity and thermal stability. Thanks to this technology, the idle current remains constant regardless of the temperature of the output transistors. This design is enhanced by a custom 320 VA toroidal transformer and a 60,000 μF reservoir capacity (4 x 15,000 μF), allowing it to handle music with precision and deliver an impressive dynamic range.
Power and Performance
Designed to work alongside the 9000A, the 9000P amplifier delivers 100 W per channel at 8 ohms, making it the ideal partner for the 9000Q preamplifier. Furthermore, with its bridged mode functionality, the 9000P can operate as a monoblock amplifier, offering up to 300 W at 8 ohms. This versatility positions it as a solution capable of accommodating various audio configurations, from stereo to high-power monoblock setups.
Design and Construction
The 9000P retains the sleek and robust aesthetics of the 9000 series, featuring impeccable finishes and a design that seamlessly blends functionality with style. It is an ideal complement to any component in the same series, standing out both for its performance and its visual integration.
Its versatility is one of its strongest attributes: it can be used as a stereo power amplifier, a reinforcement for existing systems, or in a monoblock configuration for users seeking greater power. With its outstanding performance and category-leading specifications, the 9000P sets a new benchmark in high-quality power amplifiers.
