LYNGDORF AUDIO MXA-8400 8 CHANNEL POWER AMPLIFIER LAUNCHED
The Lyngdorf Audio MXA-8400 is the Danish HiFi brand’s new high-performance 8-channel power amplifier with Purifi technology.
The Lyngdorf Audio MXA-8400. is based on Purifi EIGENTAKT technology, combined with Lyngdorf Audio’s new PowerPerfect power supply design.
LYNGDORF AUDIO MXA-8400 MULTICHANNEL POWER AMPLIFIER
With 8 amplifier channels, the MXA-8400 complements the company’s high-performance multichannel processors Lyngdorf MP-40 2.1 and MP-60 2.1, which decode up to sixteen output channels for immersive Dolby Atmos and DTS-X home cinemas. The MP-40 and MP-60 were recently updated with the latest HDMI 2.1 and Tidal Connect including Dolby Atmos Music.
MULTICHANNEL AMPLIFIERS
The MXA-8400 is the most powerful product from Lyngdorf Audio ever, delivering 8 x 400 watts of linear and stable power. It incorporates Purifi EIGENTAKT amplifier technology, Lyngdorf Audio’s highly efficient and advanced power supply PowerPerfect, ultra-low-noise and precise analogue input stages, and a 4-layer PCB optimized for the best signal purity and grounding.
PURIFI EIGENTAKT TECHNOLOGY
Purifi EIGENTAKT with the innovative and patented EIGENTAKT ErrorCorrection (EEC) is the result of extensive research, says Lyngdorf. It produces extremely low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) at any frequency and any power level, the Danish HiFi brand claims, as well as low Inter Modulation Distortion (IMD).
LYNGDORF AUDIO MXA-8400 POWERPERFECT POWER SUPPLY
8 amplifier channels with a combined 3.2 kilowatts of output power and even higher peak power represent extremely high challenges for the power supply, which is often a limiting factor with multichannel amplifiers. PowerPerfect by Lyngdorf Audio is a new, highly efficient, and advanced power supply. With its Channel Balancing Technology, integrated filtering, and several protection systems it provides, says Lyngdorf, “the best basis for each amplifier channel, even with all channels driven”.
The 8 output channels are bridgeable in pairs, delivering up to 4 x 800 watts to drive even the most demanding loudspeakers.
The MXA-8400 is assembled to the highest quality standards at Lyngdorf Audio in Denmark, where each unit has to pass a 24-hour test with all channels driven and must be measured to meet all specifications.
