Goldmund continues its run of recent high-end hi-fi elements with the 450W Telos 2800 mono energy amplifier.
The Telos 2800 mono amplifier joins the lately introduced Telos 1800 and monstrous Telos 8800 energy amps together with the Applause Award-winning Telos 590 NextGen II built-in.
Goldmund tells us that “this state-of-the-art amplifier redefines the requirements of sound high quality and precision” and that the Telos 2800 delivers a most energy output of 450 Wrms on 8 Ω with 1% THD, which is not too shabby.
These figures are bolstered by an nearly nonexistent distortion stage quoted as 0.05% IMD (SMPTE) and THD+N, unloaded, from 20 Hz to twenty kHz at 30 Vrms output. In the meantime, we’re informed that the enter noise ground is beneath 3 μV from 20 Hz to twenty kHz.
Additional notable measurements from the Telos 2800 spec sheet embody a achieve of 35 dB and a dynamic vary of 110 dB inside a 22 kHz measurement bandwidth.
Goldmund provides that because of a damping issue of 600 at 1 kHz / 8 Ω, audiophiles ought to delight within the amplifier’s means to manage speaker drivers for exact audio output.
Beneath the hood of the 32 x 44 x 46cm (HxWxD), 59 kg Telos 2800 sits a 3200 VA toroidal energy transformer complemented by a colossal customized Goldmund capacitor financial institution of 109,600 µF. The Swiss high-end audio model tells us that these enhancements enhance the dynamics and pace of the amplifier.
To make sure cool working, the Telos 2800 additionally advantages from a major enchancment in warmth dissipation. A brand new CNC machined warmth sink covers the complete rear panel of the amplifier, permitting extra floor space to dissipate the warmth generated by the facility provide.
Lastly, the rear panel is elegantly outfitted with an array of analogue and digital inputs, guaranteeing seamless compatibility with a various spectrum of audio sources.
Goldmund informed StereoNET:
The Telos 2800 Mono Amplifier is not only a product; it is a testomony to our dedication to audio excellence.
The Goldmund Telos 2800 is out there to order at a urged retail value of £250,000 per stereo pair.
