4 channel power amplifier

Using the award-winning Savoy G3 amplifier as a basis, the Audio Control Avalon G4 delivers exceptional detail and clarity thanks to an innovative and highly efficient Class H design that effortlessly achieves 230 watts per channel, all channels driven. The Class H design topology provides superb audio quality and bullet-proof reliability while reducing heat dissipation from a compact form factor. The Avalon G4 also features Audio Control’s Light Drive™ anti-clipping protection circuit, which protects loudspeakers from clipping and distortion even in extreme conditions such as a highly dynamic action movie soundtrack. The Avalon G4 can be easily configured as a 4-channel amplifier, a powerful 2-channel amplifier or as a 2.1 solution without any need for DSP management. Each pair of channels features hi/lo/bypass crossover controls, balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) inputs as well as RCA throughputs to achieve multiple configuration options. The Avalon G4 also features independent channel level controls, remote power control triggers, and audiophile-grade 5-way binding posts. The Made in USA Avalon G4 has been designed as a perfect match to Audio Control’s home theatre processors and is ideally suited for immersive surround formats or as a premium standalone power amplifier for nearly any home audio system.
