Product Information

The advent of high-end audio amplification is at your fingertips with the Adcom GFA-5500 2-Channel Power Amplifier. Designed and built with both professional audio pundits and home theater enthusiasts in mind, it combines unsurpassed clarity and functionality by utilizing a Custom Toroidal Power Transformer and MOSFET Output Circuitry throughout the signal path. This powerful combination of technologies offer a wide dynamic range and a broad frequency response capable of creating independent sound fields that fill the room with exquisite audio.

In addition, it features 200W per channel at 8 ohms, 350W at 4 ohms, gold-plated 5-way binding posts, gold-plated RCA inputs, 12V-Trigger, independent thermal overload/distortion LEDs, 1.7dB headroom, large internal heatsinks for greater cooling capabilities, and a well constructed metal chassis.

Features

• MOSFET Output Circuitry

The MOSFET circuit design with a larger and quieter toroidal power transformer and over sized power supply capacitors; deliver the large amounts of current demanded by low impedance speaker loads. It offers the ability to amplify harmonics, musical texture, and extended bass with unequaled accuracy.

• Engineered Excellence and Design

As a centerpiece of home entertainment, this amplifier offers exquisite functionality that will be hard to match. Simplicity of design and superior quality of its digital processors, power supply, and construction make it a definitive leader in the industry.

• Custom Toroidal Power Transformer

This amplifier features a Custom Toroidal Power Transformer that helps reproduce low impedance levels, and offers a full-range of audio clarity and detail.

• Thermal Protection LEDs

The thermal protection circuitry will typically be trigged by very high power demands into impedances much lower than the amplifier is capable of handling, thus protecting the longevity of the amp by cutting the power.
