Product Description
When the Azur 840A was introduced it broke the mould by introducing an entirely new class of amplifier design in the shape of Class XDTM and marked the zenith of Cambridge Audio's critically acclaimed Azur line-up. The 840A V2 now embraces the second generation of Cambridge Audio's patent pending proprietary technology and has employed some subtle but significant updates to improve upon this already outstanding design. The second generation Class XD is now complemented by a new output stage carefully adjusted to integrate with this novel technology, revised balanced inputs for lower distortion and noise and a new more accurate volume control with even lower crosstalk for greater stereo imaging.
Second generation proprietary Class XD technology
120W per channel into 8 Ohms or 200W per channel into 4 Ohms
Oversized low flux toroidal transformers
Completely separate pre-amp and power amp toroidal transformers and circuits make the 840A effectively a pre and power amplifier combination in one chassis
Sophisticated resistor ladder and relay based attenuator for extremely accurate volume/balance control
Two pairs of very high current output transistors per channel in revised configuration for improved integration with Class XD
Twin rectifiers and separate transformer taps for dual mono operation of the left and right power amplifiers
RS232 port, IR emitter In and Control Bus In/Out for seamless integration with custom install systems
A-BUSTM / IncognitoTM Ready connections compatible with Cambridge Audio's new Incognito multi-room keypads or other A-BUS compatible keypads allow the 840A to form the hub of a simple but highly effective 3 zone multi-room system
Fixed level inputs allow the 840A to provide the front channel amplification when integrated with home cinema systems that use an AV processor
Cambridge Audio proprietary CAP5TM protection system
8 inputs including 1 balanced XLR connection in addition to single ended RCA inputs
