The 150A Reference amplifier circuit
consists of 3 stages:
- an input stage with matched
dual J-FETS/Bi-polars in a cascaded differential pair
- a voltage gain stage using
bi-polar transistors
- a final stage using a source
follower with 8 power mosfets, class B biased
Negative
feedback is used to stabilize the gain and reduce
distortion, noise and output impedance. DC stability and
speaker offset voltage is properly regulated by using an
accurately trimmed DC servo amplifier. This method
introduces less coloration than using coupling capacitors.
The 150A
Reference has been engineered to be among the most effective
products on the market at dampening the back EMF from
speakers. The results are heard as tightly controlled bass
that has detail, texture and separation.
The
technology behind the Belles 150A Reference is impressive.
Even more impressive, however, is the sound. Listening to
the 150A Reference has been described as a memorable
experience; you feel as though you are part of the musical
performance.
