It will be supplied in original factory packaging along with manual, mains cable and our standard three month warranty.\u003cbr\u003e\nBelles Say….\u003cbr\u003e\nBuilding upon the successful platform that was the 150A reference amplifier. The new Version (V2) offers improved performance at a more advantageous price than its predecessor.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe new Belles reference 150A V2 has improved musicality, lower noise floor and a higher damping factor than the original model, which improved speaker driving ability and the ability to ‘free’ the music from the confines of the speaker boundaries.\u003cbr\u003e\nCircuit construction using dual matched J-FETS\/Bi-Polars in a cascaded differential pair. Bi polar voltage gain with a final stage using source follower with 8 power mosfets in class ‘B’\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Reference 150 V2 is one of those rare products that meld art and science in a way that grips hearts and minds with soul stirring energy.\u003cbr\u003e\nBelles reference 150A V2 utilizes a dual mono design topology. This gives the amplifier better isolation between channels. Soundstage imaging is improved, offering true soundstage width and depth. Instrument placement and layering are more accurate, revealing the depth and texture of each instrument or vocalist. Each channel shares a common 650VA toroidal transformer. By using a larger single transformer, rather than two smaller ones as in typical dual mono designs, stronger and cleaner bass is maintained.\u003cbr\u003e\nNegative feedback is used to stabilize the gain and reduce distortion, noise and output impedance. DC stability and speaker offset voltage is properly regulated by using an accurately trimmed DC servo amplifier. This method introduces less coloration than using coupling capacitors.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Belles reference 150A V2 has been engineered to be among the most effective products on the market at dampening the back EMF from speakers. The results are heard as tightly controlled bass that has detail, texture, improved depth and separation.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe technology behind the Belles reference 150A V2 is impressive. Even more impressive, however, is the sound. Listening to the V2 has been described as a memorable experience; you feel as though you are part of the musical performance.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecifications:\u003cbr\u003e\nPower: 125 watts per channel at 8 ohms; 250 watts at 4 ohms; 500 watts at 8 ohms (monoblock setting)\u003cbr\u003e\nDistortion: THD and IM less than 0.1% rated power\u003cbr\u003e\nDamping Factor: over 1000\u003cbr\u003e\nPeak Current: over 30 amperes\u003cbr\u003e\nInput Sensitivity: 1.4 V of rated power\u003cbr\u003e\nInput Impedance: 100 kHz\u003cbr\u003e\nHum and Noise: over 100 dB A weighted\u003cbr\u003e\nFrequency Response: 0.2 Hz - 100 kHz\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 432 (W) x 330 (D) x 133 (H) mm\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: 20.0 kg\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"2ndhandhifi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51339104715093,"sku":"8442","price":875.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/1094\/5365\/files\/IMG_8472-scaled_eefdde10-e76e-4edf-85e7-99dff9aea07b.jpg?v=1756223359","url":"https:\/\/2ndhandhifi.co.uk\/products\/belles-150a-reference-v2-power-amplifier","provider":"2ndhandhifi.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
