MOON W-6 Mono Differential Amplifier Updated: January 27, 2007    

 

Also available with silver faceplate
 
 

 
The MOON W-6 is a fully balanced differential mono-block amplifier that produces 425 watts into 8 ohms, at least 650 watts into 4 ohms and is capable of driving virtually any loudspeaker. Employing our "Advanced Renaissance" technology featuring a "no overall feedback" circuit and bipolar output devices, the W-6 produces a warm, grain free sound common to some of the very best tube amplifiers, but has the reliability of solid state designs. This amplifier possesses the same sonic signature as the larger and more powerful W-10 but at a more affordable price. With respect to external cosmetics, the MOON W-6 is similar to the W-3, the main exception being the rear panel connections.
 
 


 
 
  Significant Design Features:
 
· A "no overall feedback" design resulting in real-time amplification, a more accurate musical
  reproduction with respect to tonality, virtually non-existent intermodulation distortion and
  the elimination of common phase errors resulting from feedback
· An oversized power supply
· A custom proprietary toroidal transformer design with lower magnetic, electrical and thermal loss,
  yielding an improved power transfer and lower regulation factor, resulting in increased current
  speed and better dynamics
· Fully balanced circuitry throughout the entire amplifier
· Stable to any known speaker impedance
· "Class A" output to 10 watts for greater efficiency
· Precision matched Bipolar output devices which offer superb linearity throughout the entire audio
  frequency spectrum
· A high damping factor which yields superior musical dynamics, improved signal speed and refined
  timbre accuracy
· Extremely rigid chassis   construction to minimize the effects of external vibrations
· Accurate matching of the very finest high quality electronic components
· A very short signal path for a faster transient response
· A symmetrical circuit design
· 12 Volt trigger for remote operations
· Pure copper circuit board tracings with extremely low impedance characteristics
· Designed to be powered up at all times for optimal performance
· Low operating temperature for a longer than normal life expectancy.
