EAM LAB CLASSIC 202

Second-hand. In excellent conditions. No visible signs of wear. Comes with original packaging.

The Eamlab CLASSIC 202 represents a new era in high-quality audio amplification, combining technological innovation and craftsmanship to deliver an uncompromising listening experience. Carefully designed in every detail, both internally and externally, this dual mono power amplifier is the result of over twenty years of research and development in the high-end audio industry.

The CLASSIC 202 stands out for its new circuit design, the use of state-of-the-art components, and an advanced power transformer design, all aimed at ensuring absolute sound fidelity. The new transformers provide stability and precision, even with low-impedance loads or at high listening volumes. Thanks to its dual mono architecture, the signal remains highly stable, while the optimized channel separation creates a wide and deep soundstage, where instruments are precisely positioned within the sonic image. The result is astonishing: the speakers seem to disappear, leaving only the music.

The heart of any amplifier lies in its power supply section, and for Eamlab, this component is crafted with the utmost attention to detail. The CLASSIC 202 features two toroidal transformers with separate windings, mounted on a single core, delivering a total power of 1,200 VA. The power supply is managed by rectifier circuits mounted on a single PCB, eliminating unnecessary wiring and reducing contact resistance. This design shortens the electrical path from the transformer to the output stages, lowering impedance and improving transient response, ensuring precise and dynamic speaker control.

The circuit design is based on a cascode configuration, a solution that provides an extended bandwidth and optimal drive for the power output stage, implemented via a Darlington configuration. Each channel is equipped with six pairs of state-of-the-art bipolar transistors, ensuring absolute reliability and stability, regardless of load or current demands.

Perfect for the most discerning listeners, the CLASSIC 202 is a powerful and refined amplification platform, ready to enhance any high-end audio system.
