Class A is widely recognized as the purest form of amplification, using 100% of the input signal and, therefore, eliminating the crossover distortion inherent to Class B and Class AB designs. Classé Delta Series amplifiers take advantage of Class A across the critical power delivery range. The Delta STEREO, built to the same exacting standards as its monophonic sister, delivers 12.5 W per channel in Class A and 250 W per channel in total, being capable of supplying more than 350 W per channel over 2 ohms. Of this superb Classé electronics, we should first highlight the ICTunnel, an acronym for Intelligent Cooling Tunnel, an active cooling solution used in the Delta Series amplifiers. It expertly manages heat and maintains ideal operating temperatures so your sound remains consistent and stable no matter how demanding the amplifiers' operating conditions are. Likewise, Lateral MOSFET transistors have been selected for the critical output stage in order to obtain the highest level of performance. These are devices inherently more stable than the bipolar transistors used in 90% of High End amplifiers, substantially increasing sound reliability.
