XPA-9 Gen3 9 Channel Audiophile Home Theater Power Amplifier

The XPA-9 is perfect for powering:

A 5.1.4 Dolby Atmos or DTS-X system
A 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos or DTS-X system
A 5.1 channel system with two additional pairs of speakers in other zones
A 7.1 channel system with one additional pair of speakers in another zone
A 7.1 or 7.2 channel system that also includes two pairs of smaller speakers in other zones

The power output capabilities of the various channels on the XPA-9 were optimized to provide the best sound quality in real-world listening conditions; the main channels, which are the most critical for both dynamic music reproduction and crystal clear dialog, receive the most power.

Configuration:
5 x High-Powered Single-Channel Modules
2 x Stereo Modules

Power output (Stereo Modules):
65 watts/channel RMS into 8 Ohms; two channels driven
100 watts/channel RMS into 4 Ohms; two channels driven

Franklin, Tennessee

Flexible Signal Connections and Power Options

Gold plated five-way speaker binding posts with clear shields allow you to use a wide range of speaker cables with bare wires, lugs, or banana plugs.
Choice of balanced or unbalanced input for each channel, independently controlled by reliable metal toggle switches.
Remote trigger input and output allow the XPA-9 Gen3 to control and be controlled by other trigger-enabled equipment.
World compliant AC line voltage operation enables the XPA-9 Gen3 to operate on any line voltage between 100 VAC and 250 VAC 50/60Hz.
Standard IEC power inlet fits all standard IEC power cables and most custom audiophile power cables.

Protection

Audiophile-grade fault protection is entirely transparent under normal listening conditions, yet protects the amp and your other equipment from virtually all common faults.
The XPA-9 Gen3 is protected from AC line faults by a rugged resettable rear panel push-button circuit breaker.
Full five-year warranty ensures that you’ll be able to enjoy your XPA-9 Gen3 amplifier for years to come.

Additional information

Weight	24 kg
Circuit Topology	• The XPA-9 Gen3 is a fully modular audio power amplifier with a high-efficiency switch mode power supply (SMPS), independent, fully discrete, dual differential, high current, short signal path Class A/B amplifier modules, Optimized Class H™ power supply topology, and microprocessor-controlled fault protection. • The XPA-9 is powered by a high efficiency, audiophile grade, Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS).
Audio Specifications	The XPA-9 Gen3 features five of our High-Powered Single Channel Modules and two of our Stereo Modules. Audio Specifications (High-Powered Single Channel Modules): • Power Output: 300 watts RMS/channel; 20 Hz – 20 kHz; THD<0.1%; 8 Ohms; one channel driven. 550 watts RMS/channel; 20 Hz – 20 kHz; THD<0.2%; 4 Ohms; one channel driven. 300 watts RMS/channel; THD<0.1%; 8 Ohms; two channels driven. 490 watts RMS/channel; THD<0.1%; 4 Ohms; two channels driven. • Power Bandwidth (at rated power; 8 Ohm load): 20 Hz to 20 kHz (+ / – 0.1 dB). • Broad Band Frequency Response: 5 Hz to 80 kHz +0/-2 dB. • THD + noise: < 0.005%; at 100 watts RMS; 1 kHz; 8 Ohms. • Signal to Noise Ratio (8 Ohm load): > 115 dB; ref FTC rated power; unbalanced input (A-weighted). > 86 dB; ref 1 watt; unbalanced input (A-weighted). • Minimum Recommended Load Impedance (per channel): 4 Ohms (which equals one 4 Ohm load or two paralleled 8 Ohm loads). • Damping Factor (8 Ohm load): > 500. • Input Sensitivity (for rated power; 8 Ohm load): 1.5 V. • Gain: 29 dB. • Maximum Power Consumption: 2,600 watts. Note: The values shown refer to the amount of power the amplifier would consume while playing test tones continuously, on all channels, at full power, into a load bank. Therefore they are not at all characteristic of what you would expect when playing music or the sound track from a movie. Normal audio signals are dynamic, so the amount of power they require from second to second varies widely, and the average is far lower than this. With normal content, even playing very loudly, one of our amplifiers will consume far less power than indicated in the chart, so these values should not be considered to be a circuit requirement for normal operation. • Input Impedance: 33 kOhms (balanced). 23.5 kOhms (unbalanced). Audio Specifications (Stereo Modules): • Power Output: 65 watts RMS/channel; 20 Hz – 20 kHz; THD<0.1%; 8 Ohms; one channel driven. 100 watts RMS/channel; 20 Hz – 20 kHz; THD<0.2%; 4 Ohms; one channel driven. 65 watts RMS/channel; THD<0.1%; 8 Ohms; two channels driven. 100 watts RMS/channel; THD<0.1%; 4 Ohms; two channels driven. • Power Bandwidth (at rated power; 8 Ohm load): 20 Hz to 20 kHz (+ / – 0.1 dB). • Broad Band Frequency Response: 50 Hz to 80 kHz +0/-1.5 dB. • THD + noise: < 0.02%; at 60 watts RMS; 1 kHz; 8 Ohms. • Signal to Noise Ratio (8 Ohm load): > 105 dB; ref FTC rated power; unbalanced input (A-weighted). > 85 dB; ref 1 watt; unbalanced input (A-weighted). • Minimum Recommended Load Impedance (per channel): 4 Ohms (which equals one 4 Ohm load or two paralleled 8 Ohm loads). • Damping Factor (8 Ohm load): > 500. • Input Sensitivity (for rated power; 8 Ohm load): 0.8 V (800 mV). • Gain: 29 dB. • Input Impedance: 33 kOhms (balanced). 23.5 kOhms (unbalanced).
