Simaudio Ltd. proudly introduces the MOON W-8 Amplifier. A balanced differential dual-mono design, the
W-8 is capable of driving virtually any loudspeaker to its maximum capabilities. Producing 250 watts per
channel into 8 ohms (500 wpc into 4 ohms and 1000 wpc into 2 ohms) the MOON W-8 has lightning fast transients
and timbral accuracy that has to be heard to be believed. This impressive milestone is the result of a combination of extensive R&D yielding new proprietary
technologies and the use of the very finest electronic parts available. To push the envelope even further, the MOON W-8
can be fully integrated into a custom-install environment and provides for a plethora of user selectable cosmetic options.
Significant Design Features:
An oversized power supply.
Full unsolicited RS-232 bidirectional feedback.
Lynx circuitry which is 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.
Custom proprietary toroidal transformer design with lower magnetic, electrical and thermal loss, yielding an improved power transfer and lower regulation factor. The result is increased current speed and better dynamics.
12 Volt trigger for remote operations.
"Class A" output to 5 watts for greater efficiency.
Precision matched Bipolar output devices for superb linearity throughout the entire audio frequency spectrum.
A high damping factor yielding superior musical dynamics, improved signal speed and refined timbre accuracy.
C4 Aesthetics: 24 end-user selectable cosmetics combinations: the MOON Logo can be chrome (standard), gold or pewter; leg cones can be chrome (standard) or gold; Front panel cheeks can be silver (standard) or black; Brushed/Anodized front face-plate can be silver or black.
A very short capacitor-free signal path for a faster transient response.
Pure copper circuit board tracings with extremely low impedance characteristics.
Extremely rigid chassis construction to minimize the effects of external vibrations.
Accurate matching of the very finest quality electronic components in a symmetrical circuit design.
