Often overlooked, the humble power amplifier has an enormous
job to do within a modern hifi or AV system. With over 30 years
of audiophile engineering experience, Arcam is one of the UK’s
most respected audio companies with unique skills in power amplifier
design. The new P38 stereo stereo power amplifier is the latest
in a long family line of award winning HiFi amplifiers and is
the perfect match for the A38 in bi-amplified systems or the C31
pre-amplifier in a pre/power combination.
The A38/P38 design team was given a simple goal; to develop the
best performing stereo amplifiers Arcam had ever produced. Although
a huge task, the team dug deep into the basic structure of amplifier
design and the result was a remarkable improvement in fidelity.
An in-house research project yielded a wealth of information
concerning the influences of thermal conditions on power amplifier
performance. As a result the P38 features a number of new technologies
which practically eliminate thermal modulation of audio signals
and ensure truly dynamic and enthralling reproduction. New Sanken
output devices and dramatically improved thermal coupling provide
an extremely stable device temperature resulting in much improved
linearity.
The massive torroid based power supply delivers effortless power
with a new low noise topology improving transient response.
The ultra-wide band design of the P38 offers an extended frequency
response that is perfectly suited to the demanding requirements
of high resolution audio formats. High resolution formats such
as SACD, DVD-Audio and new surround codecs like Dolby Digital+
and DTS-HD can deliver much wider frequency and dynamic ranges.
The P38 delivers the full potential of these new formats with
control and finesse..
