The Wyred 4 Sound mAMP is an impressive monoblock amplifier that utilizes the latest generation of ICEpower® technology. With a completely redesigned input stage, it delivers superior audio quality. Using dual 14AWG OFC wiring directly soldered to gold-plated 5-way binding posts, the mAMP yields exceptional micro-dynamics and transparent power to your speakers. Its input stage has been meticulously refined to optimize frequency response, producing smooth upper-mid frequencies while maintaining tight bass extension. Regardless of input type, the high-quality dual differential common mode converter (derived from their DAC-2) feeds the amplifier with a pure balanced signal that isolates problematic impedance mismatches. Third-generation technology significantly reduces the detrimental effects of a noisy source through balanced circuitry, audio-grade capacitors, and a quad-paralleled FET buffer. While in standby, power consumption is less than 0.5W, with idle power loss under 10 watts. The mAMP’s monoblock form factor allows you to use a short speaker cable for each channel by placing the amp in near proximity to each speaker, reducing the cost of speaker cable while improving system performance. An attractive anodized finish surrounds a rigid industrial design that is immune to the frequencies and vibrations generated by the various components in your HiFi system. You can even choose to maximize its performance by upgrading the internal wiring and binding posts with premium Kimber TCX wire and high-end German-made WBT nextgen® binding posts
