The MOON 760A is
the first amplifier to be housed in
the slim chassis, making it unusually compact, yet
very heavy. A dual-mono, class A/B
design with balanced differential
circuitry, it exhibits all the sonic
hallmarks which MOON products are
globally known for: an airy,
detailed and open top end,
transparent and 3-dimensional in the
midrange, robust, powerful and
authorative in the bass. In a
nutshell, the 760A will amplify
music with all the harmonic accuracy,
richness and dimensionality of a
live musical performance.
A DC-coupled amplifier with our own
"zero global feedback" circuit, the
760A has both balanced (XLR) and
single-ended (RCA) inputs, but will
sound best when driven via its XLR
inputs. The heatsinks are crafted
from custom made aircraft-grade
aluminum extrusions and covered with
our thermally transparent paint
which will not fade or discolor over
time.
This amplifier was created as a
result of "market driven" demand; It is the
perfect entry into the
range of MOON products, and when
mated with the MOON 740P
Preamplifier, becomes a formidable,
ultra-high performance amplification
package for its price.
Of course, key features you'd expect
in a MOON product
are present such as an RS-232 port
and 12 Volt triggers for
custom-install environments
Technical Features
-
A "no overall
feedback" design resulting in
genuine real-time amplification,
a more accurate musical
reproduction with respect to
tonality, virtually non-existent
intermodulation distortion and
the elimination of common phase
errors resulting from feedback
-
Custom
proprietary toroidal transformer
design with lower magnetic,
electrical and thermal loss,
yielding an improved power
transfer and lower regulation
factor. The result is increased
current speed and better
dynamics.
-
A dual-mono
oversized power supply
-
Precision
matched and fully decoupled
proprietary MOON Bipolar output
transistors with unprecedented
gain linearity resulting in
improved bass response and even
more accurate sonic reproduction.
-
A very short
capacitor-free signal path for a
faster transient response.
-
Self-diagnostic system that
detects both over-heating and
the presence of DC in the input
signal.
-
"Class A"
output to 5 watts for greater
efficiency.
-
RS-232 port
for (i) full unsolicited
bidirectional feedback and (ii)
firmware updates.
-
12 Volt
trigger input/output for remote
operation.
-
4-Layer
printed circuit boards with pure
copper tracings for a much
shorter signal path;
This results in greater sonic
accuracy and a dramatically
improved signal-to-noise ratio.
-
Designed to
be powered up at all times for
optimal performance.
-
Low operating
temperature for a longer than
normal life expectancy.
-
Ultra rigid
chassis construction to minimize
the effects of external
vibrations.
-
Accurate
matching of the very finest
quality electronic components in
a symmetrical circuit design.
