August 14, 2018

Emotiva Audio Corporation , the company that continually proves high-performance audio doesn’t have be high-priced, is now shipping the new X Series Stealth PA-1, a high performance balanced Class-D monoblock power amplifier that produces high-end sonics from a compact, high-efficiency package. The Stealth PA-1 monoblock power amplifier (SRP: $299) is the latest addition to Emotiva’s X Series Stealth line, designed for professional recording studios, home studios, and ultra-high performance desktop and home A/V systems. It measures a diminutive 1 7/8” H x 8 1/2” W x 9” D, making it the perfect fit for any application that benefits from a powerful compact amp. From traditional rack arrays to custom installed entertainment centers and performance desktop audio systems, there is no audio
application too big or small for the PA-1. “Millions of music lovers prefer monoblock amplifiers for their clarity, definition, and overall authoritative sound, but until the PA-1 came along, the size and weight of most
monoblocks made integration with desktop and custom systems a challenge,” said Dan Laufman, President and CEO, Emotiva Audio Corp. “The PA-1 is designed to be the most flexible high-performance monoblock on the market. The fact that it’s so affordable is typical of Emotiva.”

Emotiva’s new Stealth PA-1 monoblock amplifier delivers 140 watts RMS into 8 ohms, or 300 watts RMS into 4 ohms, giving it the muscle to drive the most power-hungry speakers, yet its size allows it to conveniently fit wherever it is needed, from a shelf to a desktop, or mounted on or behind an audio rack. Its single 1U rack space makes it easy to place two amplifiers side by side in a single rack space.

The company’s focus on performance and flexibility resulted in a monoblock amplifier that is easy to configure and operate. The ICEpower 300ASC module features its own built-in switch mode power supply for consistently reliable performance, year after year. The PA1 runs on any line voltage ranging from 100 - 264 VAC (volts alternating current), and accepts a balanced input using either an XLR or balanced ¼” connector. The amplifier runs cool and efficiently, even when left on 24/7, or it can be switched on when it detects an incoming audio signal. Emotiva protects the Stealth PA-1 monoblock amplifier inside and out. Protection circuitry guards against faults without disrupting operation, and automatically resets itself when the fault is removed. On the outside, the PA-1 features a heavy duty steel chassis, solid milled aluminum faceplate, and top-shelf components throughout.

Emotiva backs up the PA-1 with a five year warranty.
