Solo 500 is a small amp, with big credentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Solo 500, Linn's latest top-tier innovations powerfully coalesce into the best compact monoblock amplifier they have ever made. The synergistic combination of Adaptive Bias Control, sophisticated hybrid cooling matrix with intelligent fan management, and Utopik power supply, results in a Class AB amplifier that is far greater than the sum of its parts, yet remarkably smaller than its counterparts. Linn have expertly miniaturised and arranged their flagship amplifier and power supply technologies inside its sleek and minimalist casework. Its neat size lends itself particularly well to active setups and scenarios where space is at a premium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-size: x-large;\"\u003eHybrid Cooling Matrix\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKlimax Solo 500 features a brand-new thermal management system—a hybrid cooling matrix—which ensures that the amplifier remains cool and whisper-quiet at all times. During everyday use, a hard-anodised thermal plate deep mounted deep within the amp draws heat away from the internal electronics. This plate is bedecked with a series of precision-machined fins—designed and optimised with the aid of simulation software—forming a labyrinthine network of precisely measured channels. This efficient system radiates heat up and out of the amp’s casework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Solo 500 is pushed hard for protracted listening sessions, the hybrid cooling matrix gets really clever. Solo 500 switches to active cooling by way of two internal fans which force cool air between the fins atop the thermal plate. Controlled by an FPGA processor in real-time, the required fan speed is determined by a combination of the amp’s internal temperature and the audio signal. This ensures that the fans run inaudibly, at the lowest speed possible, whilst providing ample cooling to maintain ideal performance, listener experience, and efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-size: x-large;\"\u003eAdaptive Bias Control\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdaptive Bias Control is a key factor in Klimax Solo 500’s devastatingly low noise floor. As a result of its implementation, Solo 500 measures eighty-five times lower total harmonic distortion and noise than its predecessor under typical listening conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolo 500 persistently measures and adjusts bias current at its output to be ideal at all times; at any temperature, regardless of volume or sudden dynamic changes in the music signal it receives, and for the entirety of its long life. Crucially, this means that Solo 500 will perform identically to its neighbours, thus ensuring flawless and consistently balanced performance between all amplification in the system — permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-size: x-large;\"\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Build\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolo 500’s overall aspect is one of minimalist and sophisticated beauty.

The badge assembly has depth; reflecting light dynamically when viewed from different positions. Each amp in the system will reflect light and create its own shadows, contributing to Solo 500's characterful statement aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-size: x-large;\"\u003ePowered by Utopik\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hybrid cooling matrix’s effectiveness is aided by a specially optimised Utopik power supply.

This allows the amplifier to deliver a constant continuous current of almost 10A into a low-impedance load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignificant vibration protection in and around the sensitive analogue input stages.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Low-frequency, acoustically disruptive heatsink is combined with four dedicated vibration matrix modules that couple directly to the output transistors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn exceptionally high-quality filter incorporating Audio Note Kaisei non-polar capacitors results in a low impedance and highly responsive power supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQPower™ power supply management.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQPower™ is our noise suppression system around the d.c. power supply to the audio boards and the IEC socket to the rear panel. When an amplifier is asked to provide power in demanding situations, the power supply exhibits large quantities of vibrational and EMI\/RFI energy that is often transferred into the audio electronics backwards through the mains connection and forwards into the audio boards. Although not often observable to the human ear, vibration causes electronic components to exhibit noise known as microphonic, adding to the musical signal through intermodulation. The T100MPA extends the capability of our T100SPA stereo power amplifier by increased deployment of a ground matrix that doubles the vibration and EMI\/RFI absorption on the secondary centre tap. This is important because it represents an efficient path for this noise to be safely dissipated rather than transmitted into the audio board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first major vibration source is when the transformer exceeds its magnetic flux density. In this case, it is possible to hear the vibration resulting, and despite views that this does not impact the performance of the audio circuits, nothing could be further from reality. It can also be very annoying to listen to! One persistent cause of transformer hum is a d.c. offset, which is increasingly prevalent and caused by the increased use of LED light bulbs. We use a non-intrusive blocking approach to prevent a DC offset, causing the transformer to exceed the magnetic flux before it reaches the primary windings. Our toroidal transformers are designed to be silent and stay that way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven though we cannot hear further vibration in the transformer, we know it is there and still causing havoc in electronics upstream to the mains and downstream to the audio boards. We use an internal version of our highly acclaimed Peak Mains Modules inside the amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext, we handle the problem of bridge rectification vibrating at approximately 100Hz and its associated harmonics into the rest of the circuit. This is achieved by building the rectification and DC smoothing circuits directly on top of our patented matrix technology, preventing the vibration from cascading to the audio board’s DC rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T100MPA uses 7 modules in its QPower™ configuration, which lowers the noise floor so low that critically important phase information needed to demonstrate realism and musical presence is preserved beyond levels previously achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCasework is machined using high-grade aluminium and uses Quiescent proprietary techniques for managing vibration and electrical noise. This prevents signal damage in the sensitive circuitry. The top of the unit is a high-grade, non-metallic plate preventing the unwanted effects caused by the Faraday cage. All casework is made to our design, and we never buy off-the-shelf casework components as they exhibit RFI\/EMI characteristics that do not meet our exacting standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAddressing vibration problems allows us to maximise the other key features of the amplifier. Current feedback and high bandwidth offer speed and precision that is detailed, transparent and with exceptionally low phase error, leading to superb imaging and soundstage. With all this attention to vibration control and damaging EMI\/RFI, the T100MPA sets the new standard in audio amplifier design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe T100MPA doesn’t just move the dial for amplifier design; it redefines it…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated at 130W into 8ohms, the T-Series Mono Power Amplifier drives effortless power into the most demanding loads thanks to its patented QPower™ technology.

Even the output stages are given dedicated vibration paths to allow the electronics to deliver high quantities of power without introducing distortion or unwanted noise.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quiescent","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58028802474371,"sku":"16589","price":25800.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/9356\/6595\/files\/16589-1QuiescentT100MPALeftFrontSoundcraftHiFi.jpg?v=1778598114"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.soundcrafthifi.com\/collections\/mono-power-amplifiers.oembed","provider":"Soundcraft Hi-Fi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
