Canor AI 1.20 Integrated Amplifier
Solid-State Integrated Amplifier, Class A, Premium Line
- Description
Description
CANOR AI 1.20 is an integrated solid-state amplifier in pure class-A up to 50 W per channel with a relay attenuator with two standalone blocks for each channel.
Highlights
01 Operates in a pure class A
02 264 000 uF of total filtering capacitance
03 Possibility to create a monoblock connection of 2 units
Heat disposal
We used a special copper plate for heat dissipation, which is installed on the heatsink and the power transistors are installed directly on the given copper plate.
Dual-mono connection
Dual-mono connection – each channel has its own power transformer. Power transformers are located in separate parts of the device.
Amplifier design
A shielded tunnel passes through the center of the AI 1.20 amplifier, in which filters with nanocrystalline coils are located. In addition, the input circuits are equipped with low-noise J-P transistors.
Monoblock connection
For even better performance and sound, it is possible to connect AI 1.20 as monoblocks using a data cable. One unit becomes the “master” unit and the other the “slave”. This is the so-called bridge connection of two amplifiers (a fully symmetrical connection)
Features
- An integrated solid-state amplifier in pure class-A up to 50 W per channel
- A relay attenuator with two standalone blocks for each channel
- PCB’s utilize our premium CMT™ technology (CANOR® PCB Milling Technology), it is the way we mill printed circuit boards
- CMT™ technology originated in a long-standing endeavour to improve the sonic performance of our products
- Power supply units with filtered out interfering signals from the mains supply
- Interference-rejection and as small as possible leakage field ensure custom-wound toroidal transformers
- 264 000 uF of filtering capacitance simulates a nearly stabilized supply voltage
- An option of synchronous control enables the use of two amplifiers in a monoblock mode without the need of using an extra preamplifier and that is a Master/Slave mode with an output power of 100W per channel
