HELIX 2-channel High-Res amplifier with integrated active crossover P TWO

HELIX P TWO

Plenty of power and sensitivity – the new P TWO combines two talents in an absolutely unique way. Due to its RMS output power of 2 x 490 Watts into two Ohms, this compact amplifier is able to drive even powerful subwoofers to the max. The technical design is literally predestinated for all woofers with 2 x 2 Ohms dual voice coil like the new HELIX Q subwoofers.

But despite its sheer force the P TWO is by no means a pure subwoofer amplifier. On the contrary, the Ultra HD Class D concept combines an extended frequency response above 40 kHz with high damping factor, minimal distortion and excellent signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore, this amplifier is likewise a perfect buddy for heavy-duty front speakers in audiophile system concepts.

Features

• “Ultra HD Class D” concept which combines the high-end sound quality of Class AB technology with the benefits of Class D amplifiers
• Two speaker outputs with 490 Watts RMS each at 2 Ohms
• Digital, optical signal input in SPDIF format including SPDIF Direct In switch for routing the digital input signal directly to the power stage
• BurrBrown DA signal converter of the latest generation with a resolution of 32 Bit
• Integrated, active crossover with highpass, lowpass, bandpass and configurable bass boost
• Smart highlevel input with ADEP circuit
• Cable remote control for volume adjustment
• Compact design with low heat dissipation thanks to extraordinary efficiency
