Class G Amplifier
Featuring a Class G amplifier design, the SA550 offers high efficiency, low distortion, and improved dynamic range, making it an ideal choice for audiophiles who demand the highest level of sound quality. The SA550 delivers 90W per channel into 8Ω as well as 150W into 4Ω thanks to a higher voltage power supply. To combat unwanted distortion, the SA550 provides a set of high-speed ”lifters”, which gently increases the power transmitted to the SA550, ensuring high-quality sounds. This high power output ensures that the amplifier can reproduce music with stunning accuracy, even at high volume levels.
What is the definition of a Class G Amplifier?
Class G amplifiers are similar to class AB amplifiers except they use two or more supply voltages. When operating at low signal levels, the amplifier uses a lower supply voltage. As the signal level increases, the amplifier automatically picks the appropriate supply voltage. Class G amplifiers are more efficient than class AB amplifiers since they use the maximum supply voltage only when required, while a class AB amplifier always uses the maximum supply voltage.
Excellent Digital Playback
The JBL Classic SA550 Integrated Amplifier offers a Bluetooth input with Hi-res AptX Adaptive technology. This lets you wirelessly stream all the music stored on your smart devices in thrilling sound quality directly to the amplifier. The built-in ESS ES9038K2M DAC significantly improves the playback of digital audio and ensures a memorable listening experience. The SA550 supports 24bit/192kHz hi-res audio, which captures every detail of the music and delivers incredible sound accuracy. Thanks to the 20Hz-20kHz frequency response, the amplifier will also create a wide-ranging sound output.
Great Connectivity
The phono stage is designed to provide accurate and detailed audio reproduction from your turntable. This input is specially catered to amplify and equalize the signal produced by a Moving Magnet (MM) cartridge which results in a more intricate and balanced sound. The SA550 provides various coaxial and optical inputs that allow you to connect to a variety of digital audio devices, such as CD players. You can also securely connect to your active speakers thanks to the multiple analogue inputs. The SA550 provides both the preamplifier and power amplifier in one package, allowing you to create a simplified yet dynamic HiFi setup.
