Featuring ARCAM's innovative Class G amplification, this high-power multichannel amplifier delivers silky-smooth audio that packs a punch when needed. It is the natural partner for the ARCAM AVP45 processor and a high-quality amplifier for many other AV applications. Available now at Vinyl Sound Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe perfect partner for the AVP45\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its Radia styling and matching electronics, the PA9 is the ideal partner for the AVP45 processor, the two sharing a natural sonic synergy. A single PA9 unlocks 5.1.4 or 7.1.2 Dolby Atmos and DTS:X surround sound. Add a second PA9 and you can boost the main channels or increase the channel count right up to 9.1.6, linked via balanced XLR cables for professional connectivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOptimise your ARCAM AV amplifier\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PA9 also pairs beautifully with the AVA35, taking its nine channels up to 16 for speaker configurations as large as 9.1.6, with Class G amplification perfectly tuned to the AVA35's sonic signature. It can also be added to an AVA25 or an older-generation ARCAM amplifier for a big upgrade in multichannel performance, and it works with any AV receiver that has preamp outputs to power all your surround channels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInnovative Class G technology\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eARCAM's pioneering Class G amplification gives the PA9 the best possible sound in all circumstances. The first wave of power is delivered in pure Class A, renowned for a rich, smooth, lifelike sound. Beyond that point, efficient digital amplification takes over, delivering plenty of power without the inefficiency of pure Class A. Sweet and refined yet a beast when unleashed, the PA9 provides 140 watts per channel, or 100 watts with all nine channels driven, with power for the largest rooms and the least efficient speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBalanced XLR inputs and Radia design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor studio-quality connectivity, the PA9 features balanced XLR inputs that lock firmly in place and resist electrical interference over long cable runs, the perfect match for the AVP45's balanced XLR outputs. Regular RCA phono inputs are also provided for other sources. As part of the Radia series, the PA9 pairs a clean design and subtle illumination with a shielding aluminium casing for a high-quality presence that never distracts from the sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9-channel Class G power amplifier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower output (per channel, 8 ohm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower output (all 9 channels driven)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100W per channel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAmplifier class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClass G (dual-mono pairs, bi-amping capable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowered channels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 balanced XLR, RCA, 1 x 12V trigger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x 12V trigger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImmersive support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDolby Atmos, DTS:X (up to 9.1.6 with two PA9)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 Hz-20 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the ARCAM PA9 designed to pair with?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe PA9 is designed as the natural partner for the ARCAM AVP45 processor, connected via balanced XLR cables.
