Description
The Champ series amplifiers offer what until now seemed impossible in the audio industry: a fanless amplifier capable of delivering high-quality sound, high dynamics, and high reliability.
Power amplifiers must work under very harsh conditions. In some places, the air is filled with dust, nicotine, or grease. Since power generates heat, power amplifiers normally have fans to keep the electronic circuits cool.
Unfortunately, these cooling fans are the main source of problems in high-power amplifiers. They tend to make them noisy and, when the fan breaks down due to a buildup of dust, the amplifier overheats, which eventually leads to failure.
A fanless amplifier seems to be the logical solution, but until now, the idea has not worked in high-quality amplifiers. The electronic circuitry produces more heat than the unit is able to dissipate.
Especially for the CHAMP series, Apart has designed unique side-mounted heat sinks that, combined with a low-resonance structure, have made it possible to create a fanless power amplifier that does not introduce dust into the inside of the unit and does not produce any noise.
This translates into lower maintenance requirements, the elimination of the need for periodic cleanings or filter or fan replacements, and a total absence of noise.
CHAMP amplifiers also feature proprietary APC circuitry for power management. It is one of the smartest protection circuits ever designed, as it performs its function without interfering with the dynamic character typical of music.
APC allows the user to preset the amplifier's power potential, while maintaining the power reserves that allow it to deliver high and clean power. The circuit continuously analyzes the input signal, maintaining the dynamics; an additional ultra-fast peak limiter prevents the amplifier from clipping.
All components included in Champ 2 are audiophile grade; a tube emulation circuit is also included, which makes the unit provide an exceptionally warm sound, which considerably reduces listening fatigue
Features
· 8-ohm bridged mode operation: 750 W
· 8-ohm 2-channel mode: 200 W per channel
· 4-ohm 2-channel mode: 250 W per channel
· 2.7-ohm 2-channel mode: 450 W per channel
