MKII Mono Amplifier
Bel Canto’s new generation of e.One analog switching audio
power amplifiers emerge…
These
amplifiers incorporate performance enhancing technology
resulting from our on-going research in analog switching
amplifier technology. High common mode rejection, wide
dynamic range custom input stages are added. This input
stages improved the drive to the amplifier, resulting in
lower noise and distortion and wider dynamic range in
real-world operation.
The
input stage uses the latest advanced amplifiers and passive
components including: Caddock resistors, Solid Electrolytic
ultra-low ESR decoupling capacitors and low noise regulated
power supplies. These devices ensure that the input section
is utterly transparent, enhancing the performance of the
core amplifier.
The
REF1000 mkII and REF500 Mono amplifiers also include custom
power supply rectification and filters that substantially
increase the energy storage of the power supply. This stage
results in lower noise in operation, reduced sensitivity to
power line effects and better perceived power delivery and
dynamics. Incorporating high speed, low noise rectifiers,
high voltage film filter capacitors and high energy storage
this filter allows the regulated power supply to perform at
its best.

Mono Audio Power Amplifier
The audio amplifier is the engine of the audio system. It
must provide the power to drive the loudspeaker motor. The
amplifier has huge power gain: from micro-watts of input
power to 100’s of watts of output power the audio amplifier
must do its job with ease and competence.
Key
issues that must be addressed in a high performance audio
amplifier are:
• Power supply design defines the performance limit of the
amplifier, fully regulated power supplies provide the
standard for fidelity.
• True balanced operation improves the signal fidelity
under load.
• Balanced input insures that the large output/input power
ratio does not corrupt the input signal fidelity.
• Low output stage impedance, especially at low
frequencies, insures maximum control of the loudspeaker
driver.
• Comprehensive protection circuit that is outside the
signal path is critical to protecting both the amplifier
and loudspeaker.
• A short, simple, signal path with a minimum of output
devices leads to a better audio performance.
All
of the Bel Canto e.One amplifiers are designed to optimize
performance of all of these criteria. The REF1000
represents the summit of audio amplifier performance with
over 1000 watts of low-distortion, wide-band power
available, fully regulated switching power supply, true
balanced operation, 2 ohm drive and 120dB of dynamic range
capability. Your audio system performance will reach
extreme levels with the REF1000.

ground breaking performance in a compact, dual mono chassis
design able to supply 300 Watts of power. Each S300
amplifier channel has its own fully regulated switching
power supply, true balanced operation, 4 ohm drive
capability and 111dB of dynamic range.

e.ONE PRe3
£1799
The
control preamplifier plays the central role in the audio
system:
• It must switch among multiple sources.
• Accept both balanced XLR and Single-ended RCA inputs.
• Accurately control the volume or level of the audio
signal.
• Allow simple soft and hard muting of the signal
• Provide remote control function.
• Condition and buffer the balanced XLR outputs to
optimally drive the power amplifier.
It
must provide these functions while maintaining all of the
low-level signal information, imposing minimum noise and
bandwidth reduction and low levels of linear and non-
linear signal distortion, all while providing a simple and
intuitive control interface.
The
PRe3 control preamplifier fulfills all of these functions
in a highly optimized, compact design providing remarkable
signal fidelity. The unique, Single-Knob control interface
insures an intuitive and easy to use means for controlling
your system, this is a user interface that emphasizes you,
the user. The compact dedicated remote control is also easy
to learn and use and adds soft and hard mute functionality.
The
PRe3 signal path and power supply architecture provides
remarkably low levels of non-linear distortion, extremely
low-noise levels, wide bandwidth with a high degree of
control accuracy and channel-channel tracking to insure a
seamless and utterly transparent means to controlling your
audio system.

preamplifier architecture. Using the same signal path,
power supply architecture and parts quality of the PRe2P
Phono Stage in a more compact chassis with rear panel
accessible gain and loading adjustments the e.One PHONO3 is
a complete high performance solution for the serious LP
lover.
A
custom low-noise high-isolation power transformer and
double stage low noise supply regulation insure that the
e.One PHONO3 audio circuits get low noise, wideband power
for the highest musical resolution possible.
Gain
Settings of 40 or 60 dB provide compatibility with most
cartridges. Input loading settings for both input
resistance and capacitance provide optimum matching for a
wide range of moving magnet and moving coil cartridges.
Custom audio grade resistors, capacitors and gain stages
provide a musical experience that will enhance the
enjoyment of your LP collection.
