2 x 200 W into 8 Ohms, 2
x 400 W into 4 Ohm and more than 700 W into 2 Ohm - these are
the impressive specifications of this amplifier. A sheer power
plant which has been combined with many specialities of high-end
technology. Integrated circuits by Crystal are taking care of
the low-level signals.
Tone controls are of the electronic variety - supervised by a CPU. This means there will be neither any mechanical distortions nor any wear-off. Apart from that, the SV 238 is able to deliver 2 x 60W into 8 Ohms in Class-A mode of operation, which is automatically switched to AB mode if higher power is needed.
