Description
The Ideal Front Three Channels for an Uncompromising Home Theatre
The XPA-DR3 is a high-powered three-channel audiophile power amplifier that combines the exceptional accuracy and finesse of a true balanced differential design with the power needed to deliver the most demanding movie special effects and musical performances with stunning realism. Featuring three Differential Reference Amplifier Modules, it is the ideal choice to power the critical front left, centre, and right channels of a truly outstanding surround sound system. It delivers 450W RMS into 8 Ohms and 600W RMS into 4 Ohms, all three channels driven, with less than 0.1% THD. Built on the same modular platform as the XPA-DR1 and XPA-DR2, it shares the same outstanding construction, SMPS power supply, and American manufacturing.
