2-channel, 800-watt Reference Power Amplifier with Stereo and Bridged Mono Operation, Servo-controlled Design, Convection Cooling, Overload Protection, and LED Metering
Bought this to use while my other amp was being repaired, and honestly, ALMOST decided to keep it instead of the older class A/B amp. Used it for just over a month, so it's pretty much brand new. Comes with original box and packaging.
This a class D power amplifier, which means that it is very light, doesn't require heavy heatsinks or fans, even though it puts out 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms, or 800 watts into 8ohms in Bridged mode.
Need a power amp to drive your passive studio monitors? Behringer’s Reference Amplifier A800 offers audiophile-grade sound at a price that’s ideal for home and project studios. The A800 offers impressive clarity and transparency, thanks to its ultra-linear performance. What’s more, its advanced convection-cooling technology ensures stable, noise-free operation, while its servo-controlled design accommodates nearly every passive speaker system. You also get independent DC, LF, and thermal overload protection on each channel to safeguard the amp and your speakers. The A800 is at home in numerous applications — it offers both stereo and bridged-mono modes, precise level metering, comprehensive input connections, and rugged twist-lock binding post outputs.
Versatile design delivers top-notch performance
The Reference Amplifier A800 is designed to do two things: offer impressive flexibility and deliver excellent sound. For typical stereo situations, it delivers a healthy 400 watts into each channel at 4 ohms. Need more power? No problem — in bridged-mono mode, the A800 delivers 800 watts into a single channel. No matter how you use it, the A800 exhibits remarkable headroom, resulting in pristine audio reproduction.
Ultra-linear power amplifier for recording studios, post-production, live sound and HiFi application
Lightweight and efficient Class D amplifier technology
Thanks to revolutionary Class D technology with near-zero thermal buildup, the lightweight Behringer A800 runs very cool, no more massive heat sinks or toroid transformers. We’ve been impressed with the punch and clarity of this Class D power amp!
Linear frequency response at any speaker load
The A800 punches well above its weight. Behringer’s SmartSense Technology yields a linear frequency response at any speaker load impedance. On top of that, the A800’s impressive damping factor offers superior amplifier control over your speakers, ensuring top-notch sound reproduction. When combined with quality loudspeakers, the A800 yields powerful, dynamic bass and ultra-smooth high frequencies.
