The build quality is impeccable, which is the way all Elektra products are crafted.
Each Elektra Reference HD amplifier delivers all of the sonic features that the new High Definition audio formats demand, and more!
With an Elektra Reference HD amplifier in your audio system, formats such as 192Khz/24bit, DXD (358.2kHz/24bit), DSD and even High Definition lossless compression FLAC and ALAC will spring to life - exceeding anything you've heard before.
Each of these formats exceeds CD's 16 bit/44.1kHz standard. HD formats challenge the weakest link in the traditional audio chain, the power amplifier.
The Elektra Reference HD is a true High Definition amplifier that is perfectly placed to give music lovers the best that the new, and the old formats, can offer.
Designed for the ultimate music experience, the Elektra ReferenceHD 2-channel amplifier delivers power, dynamics and detail. With 250 watts per channel into 8 ohms at its disposal, there is ample headroom for the most complex and demanding of music.
The Elektra Reference HD has extremely low distortion across the entire audio bandwidth from 20Hz to 20kHz. It is a completely new design using innovative technology to deliver an uncompromising, full High Definition stereo music experience.
The Elektra Reference HD reveals all of the audio information that has been mixed and mastered by audio engineers during the original performance, allowing you to enjoy all the music.
The unique current feedback discrete power amp output stage is designed to eliminate a major source of distortion in linear class A/B amplifiers the output transistor distortion, which is an order of magnitude better than conventional output stages.
Multiple high current discrete power output transistors are used which have wide operating bandwidth to further reduce distortion.
Unique construction techniques are used to eliminate all non-linear magnetic fields in the output stage.
Multiple output transistors further reduce distortion into low impedance loads (<2 ohms) and this also lowers output resistance even further resulting in the incredible high damping factor greater than 5000 .
The Elektra Reference HD has superior isolation from mains related induced noises due to a careful layout of all of its parts.
Reference HD also yields better performance in slew rate, resulting in better sound and improved bass response. It uses a hefty Dual-Mono power supply with high specification power supply capacitors to help achieve this.
For maximum connectivity, the Elektra Reference HD carries both unbalanced (RCA) and balanced (XLR) inputs, and each amplifier channel can be configured for your choice of input connector. The loudspeaker connections are audiophile-grade and are gold-plated for maximum signal transfer. They can easily accommodate a wide range of audiophile speaker cable connectors. A 12V DC trigger input is used for external power on/off control.
The craftsmanship, innovative design, and premium construction, together with comprehensive after-sales support, are your guarantee that you will be very happy with your Elektra Reference HD. You are buying an amplifier that has been designed to provide the greatest musical experience.
The Elektra Reference HD is engineered from the best sounding and highest grade, custom components. These are specially selected, highly reliable, audiophile-grade components that are matched in the final construction. The look is classic and elegant.
