JBL Synthesis S800 2 CH Power Amplifier

Description: The JBL Synthesis S800 power amplifier features the following:THX ® Ultra Specifications This amplifier meets or exceeds the stringent specifications set by the Lucasfilm THX Audio division in their specifications for "Ultra"-class certification, including power handling, total harmonic distortion, frequency response, signal to noise ratio, slew rate, and crosstalk. When incorporated into a complete THX system, you will hear in your home what the director and sound engineer heard in the recording studio.Multi-Channel Operation The S800, a two channel amplifier that can also be operated in bridged-mode as an extraordinarily powerful single-channel amplifier (typically when used to drive a subwoofer), has been designed to integrate well into the world of multi-channel audio. When coupled with the five channels available in the S650A, or the seven channels of the S7150, they are a solid foundation on which to build a high-performance home cinema system that will astound the listener with its power and realism.High Power Capability The S800 provides a truly satisfying 200 watts per channel of clean audio (<0.03% THD) into eight ohm loads, and 800 watts when operated in bridged-mode into an eight ohm load, making it ideal for powering subwoofers and surround speakers, which are frequently less efficient than front speakers. Because of their power capabilities, all Synthesis amplifiers have an extremely wide dynamic range, an element critical to realistic home cinema. Sound pressure levels equal to those present at original performances are easily recreated in even the largest of home listening environments.Auto Turn-On and Power Sequencing Circuitry When used in a JBL Synthesis System, the S800 can be turned on automatically whenever the surround processor is activated. No longer do you have to get out of that chair to turn on the various pieces of equipment in your entertainment system; just one touch on the remote control of the surround processor, and you’re a few seconds away from a truly impressive audio presentation! Modern amplifiers produce more power per channel (and frequently have more channels) than those of the traditional two-channel stereo era. Due to the high current demands of power amplifiers at the instant of turn-on, the S800, S650A, and S7150 amplifiers and the SDEC digital equalizer are equipped with power sequencing circuits which turn on each unit in sequence, avoiding the large instantaneous current demand (and possible house circuit breaker tripping) that would occur should they all turn on at the same instant.Quiet Cooling The S800 utilizes a fan to cool the amplifier channels, ensuring long-term reliability. To reduce fan noise to an absolute minimum, a thermal sensing and control circuit has been incorporated in the Synthesis S800 that senses increases in temperature within the amplifier and powers a fan at a speed proportional to that temperature increase. When the S800 is "loafing", the fan turns very slowly – and quietly. At high listening levels (and the higher operating temperatures this creates within any amplifier), the sensing circuitry causes the fan to turn faster, producing increased cooling. As a result, the fan is never turning faster than necessary, and most of the noise that is generated is masked by the program being listened to. Comprehensive and Isolated Circuit Protection The S800 amplifier employs a sophisticated protective circuit (one for each channel) that senses many possible fault conditions, such as shorted loudspeaker wires or excess power demand, and turns the affected channel(s) and their blue front panel indicators off until the fault condition is removed, at which time normal operation is automatically restored. While protection of this sort is not uncommon in today’s well-designed amplifiers, a remarkable feature of the Synthesis S800’s protective circuits is that they are optically-coupled to the signal circuit; there is no direct electrical connection between the signal path and the protective circuitry.
