An Amplifier to end all Multi-Channel Amplifiers
The State-of-the-art ... Redefined !
Available in configurations from 2 to 7 channels, the MOON MC-8 was designed with one overwhelming goal in mind: uncompromising
reproduction of both the massive dynamics and awe inspiring sonics that accompany today's uncompressed multi-channel audio recordings
(Blu-Ray). To accomplish this feat and the numerous engineering challenges that go with it, a whole new approach to the design of multi-channel
amplification was required.
Relying on many technologies found in our highly-acclaimed Evolution Series power amplifiers, numerous physical and electrical constraints
had to be overcome to create a multi-channel amplifier where all 7 channels would be capable of identically staggering performance. The
result is the MC-8 which can produce a maximum continuous power output of 250 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 500 watts per
channel into 4 ohms and 1000 watts per channel into 2 ohms, generating a mind-numbing ultra-high-current output signal of 280 amperes
spread across 7 channels.
The MC-8 is leaps beyond anything else available, even our own MOON Titan. A quick listen will reveal a level of sound
purity, sheer power and limitless dynamics that no other multi-channel power amplifier has ever been able to attain, let alone hint at.
The MOON MC-8 is a genuine masterpiece, a technological tour-de-force, and a colossal achievement that has no equal.

At the heart of the MOON MC-8's unique ability to provide unparalleled performance across all channels
simultaneously is a very massive proprietary toroidal transformer. For perspective, the smaller transformer to
the right was used in the legendary MOON W-5 LE Power Amplifier.

Increasing the number of channels in a MOON MC-8 Multi-channel Power Amplifier is a
relatively simple "in-the-field" upgrade that may be performed
ONLY by an authorized MOON dealer/distributor.
