THE DESIGN OF THE AMPLIFIER
Ultra-low internal resistance due to solid gold-pla-
1
ted terminals; for power cables up to 50 mm² and
speaker cables up to 6 mm²
External connection for BRAX-Power-Stabilizers
2
directly connected to the switching transistors gu-
power stabilization
Interference-free power supply due to optimized
3
suppression coil up to 150 A with ultra-low internal
resistance
Four Mini-Blade fuses in parallel (4 x 25 A) in order
4
to minimize the internal resistance
5 Six capacitors, each with 5.000 μF (in total 30.000
μF), take care of an extremely high current impulse
load. Especially designed capacitors with 8-times-
contacted wound foil minimize the internal resi-
stance
6 200 A high-performance switching transistors.
7
diodes with more than 160 A in total
8
due to newly developed storage coils that bridge
the switching delay dead times
9
core materials guarantee a total performance of
more than 1.200 Watts
10
Optimum power supply of the transistors due to four
8-times-contacted low-impedance capacitors with a
total capacity of 15.600 μF.
11 Separate switching power supply for the supply
voltage of the DSP-PCB (NOX4 DSP).
12
Best signal processing due to a newly developed
and discretely designed driver.
16 handselected high-end MOSFET transistors
13
which account for brilliant sound.
14
High-end BurrBrown 2-channel D/A signal con-
verter (3 x 2-channel) for best possible signal
conversion
15
channels
16 High-End Asahi Kasei A/D converts for a lossless
signal conversion of the analog signal
17 Processor-controlled adjustment of the input sen-
sitivity via special digital-controlled level control-
ler.
Siemens high-current relays with Degussa-
18
contacts account for the internal and external
Reed-relais for a distortion-free turn-on and turn-
19
off of the DSP controlled Line-Outputs E and F
(NOX4 DSP)

rantee an interference-free signal transmission.
The solid heatsink, made of a special aluminium
22
alloy takes care of a perfect cooling of power sup-
