Yamaha P-2250 dual-mono power amp

 Yamaha P-series Professional Power Amplifiers P2250

The dual-channel amplifier shall include a rear-panel switch that converts the amplifier to monaural operation, in which case the bridged outputs shall deliver maximum continuous sine wave power output over a 20 Hz to 20 kHz bandwidth of (300 watts, 500 watts) into a minimum 8 ohm load impedance, or (220 watts, 340 watts) into a 16 ohm load with no more than 0,05% thd s/n in bridge mono mode, as established by comparing the maximum output with signal to the minimum output noise with a shorted input, shall be no less than 106 dB measured with a _6 dB/octave low pass filter at 12,47 kHz (equal to a “brick wall” filter at 20 kHz), and no less than 115 dB measured with an IHF “A” weighting network. Channel separation shall be at least 90 db at 1 khz, and shall be at least 70 db at any frequency from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Slew rate in bridged mono mode shall be at least 90 volts per microsecond, full swing.

Single and Dual –Channel Models in Two Power Ranges

the P1150 is a single channel amplifier rated at 100 watts into 8 ohm or 150 watts into 4 ohm; the dual-channel P2150 delivers the same power output per channel, the P1250 is a single channel  amplifier rated at 170 watts into 8 ohm or 250 watts into 4 ohm, the dual-channel P2250 delivers the same power output per channel.

A rear panel switch on both dual-channel models rewires them internally for use in a bridged , MONO (single-channel) configuration; in this mode the P1250 delivers 200 watts into 16 ohm or 300 watts into 8 ohm, and the P2250 delivers 340 watts into 16 ohm or 500 watts into 4 ohm.

by using both channels of a dual-channel model to drive a single speaker load in the bridged (mono) configuration, it is possible to achieve the wide headroom and dynamic range needed for accurate reproduction of peaks and transient sounds. The P2250 in bridged Mono mode, will deliver 63 volts to the speaker line and therefore may be used to drive a slightly de-rated 70 volt line (for use with a distributed speaker system)

Multiple Protection Techniques Avoid Damaged Speakers

theoretically , a power amplifier is capable of damaging speakers in many ways. The new Yamaha professional amps are designed to eliminate as many potential damage modes as is practical without causing unwanted shut-down or impairment of the sound.

A turn-on transient (a low frequency “thump”) may occur as the power supplies in mixers, console or auxiliary signal processing equipment activate their internal circuits. One does not want these “thumps” to be amplified by the power amp. Or speaker damage might occur. The safest approach here is to disconnect the speakers from the amplifier until all equipment in the sound system has stabilized. That’s why we designed these amplifiers with a relay that disconnects the output until after power has been on a few seconds. This protection is only effective, however, with good operating practice – i.e., if you turn on the amplifier Last – after first turning on the console, electronic crossover, and any signal processing equipment.

If DC were to appear at an amplifier’s output, it would cause speaker voice coils to move to one position and stay there, which can quickly lead to voice coil overheating and premature failure of the speaker. Even relatively low levels of DC can cause this problem, DC can appear at a direct coupled amplifier’s output when the input signal has just a few millivolts of DC offset. That’s the advantage of AC coupled amplifiers such as these. Still, it is conceivable that some DC might appear at the output of an AC-coupled amplifier in the presence of asymmetrical, very low frequency input signals. In any event, high DC levels, as might be caused by a short between the power supply “ralls” and the output , can instantly destroy a speaker or compression driver. To prevent any such catastrophe circuitry in these amplifiers senses the presence of any significant DC component at the output(more than 2 volts), and opens the speaker relay immediately, when this occurs, the front-panel Protection LED turns on. Given that the average 8 ohm speaker has a DC resistance of about 5 ohms, this means that the relay would shut down the output before so much as 1 watt of DC power reached the speaker load.

If a short circuit in the speaker or cable or a very low impedance speaker load overloads the amplifier, current limiting circuitry in the amplifier prevents excessive power from being delivered to the load.

Features

Every effort has been made to provide the features that musicians, soundmen and engineers feel they need in a professional power amplifier. Rather than experiment with exotic designs, we have applied field-proven principles to design amplifiers which are highly stable, and will deliver the kind of reliability enjoyed for over a decade by Yamaha professional and commercial sound products.

Recessed input attenuators with 32 calibrated, detented positions are easily operated. To discourage casual tampering, rubber security covers are included.

Electronically balanced, differential input circuits allow the use of long, shielded 3-wire input cables to reduce susceptibility to hum.

Two methods to connect each input: XLRs combine the advantages of electrostatic and electromagnetic noise rejection, with locking terminals that won’t pull out accidentally should the cable be tugged. Phone jacks provide for fast, compatible connection to equipment that utilizes phone jacks instead of one per channel, we have made it easier to “daisy chain” connect more than one amplifier to a given signal source – on “Y” adapter cable is required.

The output circuitry is fully protected from overloads and short circuits, and the speaker outputs are relay-protected against turn-on transients and DC offset.

five-way binding post output connections provide more secure wiring, better current handling capability, and less tendency to built up contact resistance than typical phone jack outputs. Phone jack outputs are provided for convenience in fast setup situations.

Rated for 4-ohm or higher impedance loads

P2250, in bridged mono mode , can drive 70-volt lins without an output transformer.

Two-stage, temperature-operated cooling fan pulls air through a front panel filter to keep the power transformer and heat sinks cool, further protection afforded by a thermal breaker.

Convenient power cord holders on rear panel enable amp to be set “on end” without damage to connectors; sturdy front panel handles for easy removal from rack and more comfortable carrying.

Well suited to a variety of sound reinforcement, recording and musical instrument applications.

Residual output noise, measured with the input attenuator set at infinite attenuation, shall be no more than _80 dBm with a -6 dB/octave low pass filter at 12,47 kHz, or no more than -90 dBm with an IHF “A” weighting network.

The input shall be of the electronically balanced, differential type, with an input impedance of no less than 15 k ohm presented to either balanced or unbalanced sources. The amplifier output(s) shall be equipped with a set of 5-way binding posts for positive, high-current connections, and with parallel-wired Tip/Sleeve 1-4-inch phone jacks for wiring convenience.

Input level shall be adjustable by means of (one or two) detented input attenuator(s) calibrated in 32 steps of from zero to infinite attenuation. The attenuator(s) shall be recessed, and shall be designed so as to be easily adjustable by hand, without any tools. To avoid casual or accidental setting changes, a security cover for the attenuator(s) shall also be provided.

Further protection for the amplifier and load shall be provided by VI limiting circuitry which automatically reduces the power output in the event the load impedance is below 2 ohm for a single channel, (4 ohm for a dual-channel model in bridged mono configuration). The amplifier shall also include a full-time 2-speed fan which operates at high speed under severe thermal stress, and automatically resets to a lower speed as appropriate. Cooling air shall be drawn through a removable cleanable front-panel filter, and exhausted via ports in the tip and side panels of the amplifier.

Signal level indication (per each channel on dual-channel models) shall be provided by two LEDs, one of which turns on when the output THD is equal to or above 1%, which would indicate the onset of clipping, and one which turns on when the output level is equal to or greater than 2 volts RMS, which would indicate the presence of program signal.

Yamaha A-520 amplifier

Rec Out Selector with Tape Copy Function

The Yamaha Rec Out Selector is another extremely useful feature which greatly extends the source control capability of the A-520. It allows you to record one source, selected by the Rec Out Selector, while monitoring another completely independent source selected by a front panel input selector. And the Rec Out Selector also allows you to copy tapes between the two tape inputs, in either direction, eliminating the need for complicated re-connections when dubbing tapes between two decks.

Accessory Output Loop

The growing use of graphic equalizers and sound processors in an audio system presents the need for extra connection capability, and a simpler way to make the right connections. The A-520 is prepared for this need with a rear panel accessory output loop. Serving the same role as a tape loop which would otherwise have to be used, it routes a line level signal out to an external graphic equalizer or sound processor and back in to the amplifier. This frees both existing tape loops provided on the amplifier for their intended purpose, and allows easy connection of an external component without interfering with existing rear panel input/output connections.

Heavy Duty Speaker Connection Terminals

the rear panel speaker connection terminals on the A-520 are specially designed to accept speaker cable of maximum thickness with a simple, solid connection. This allows the use of the heaviest gauge speaker cable for maximum signal transmission purity without having to cut or squeeze the cables in, and provides a solid electrical connection that can’t be pulled out. Normal gauge speaker cables can also be used with the same terminals.

Center Defeat Bass and Treble Tone Control

The  bass and treble controls provided on A-520 are specially designed with a center defeat position. When set to their center positions, tone control response is perfectly flat, with no influence on the original signal. When tuned for either a boost or cut, they provide smooth, accurate response over a conveniently wide range.

Subsonic Filter

A  switchable subsonic filter is provided on the A-520 front panel, allowing you to filter subsonic frequency content such as turntable rumble out of the signal, thereby protecting both amp and speakers and preventing needless power drain.

Independent Speaker A/B Selectors

The  A-520 provide rear panel connectors and front panel selectors for two separate pairs of speakers.

Yamaha GT-5000 turntable

Referencing the esteemed turntables of the golden age of Hi-Fi, the GT-5000 expands on this heritage in the pursuit of pure musicality. Including a pure straight and short arm for absolute transparency and openness in sound, balanced signal path delivering absolute purity in signal transmission and design reflective of the GT heritage and absolute quality in craftsmanship and construction, the GT-5000 presents a new era on Hi-Fi from Yamaha

 

Features

Massive yet elegant heavy wooden chassis effectively serve to dampen vibration
Large, heavy double-structured platter for enhanced stability and performance
Heavy 5 kg Aluminium Platter
Custom belt-drive mechanism driven by 24-pole, 2-phase AC synchronous motor
Short, straight tonearm designed to deliver superior rigidity as well as a balanced weight
Specially-designed custom feet
XLR balanced output jacks that enable end-to-end balanced signal transfer from cartridge to speaker

 

 

Straight, Short Arm for Openness and Transparency in Sound

Accurately capturing the audio from the source is the imperative first step in delivering authentic, true, Hi-Fi sound. The flagship GT-5000 adopts a short, straight arm designed to deliver superior rigidity as well as balance of weight and mechanics which results in improved traceability. A rigid mechanism with simple construction means there is no need for an inside force canceler weight.

 

 

Customised Belt-drive for Stabilising Platter

The customised belt-drive mechanism of the GT-5000 minimises the influence of the motor cogging and excludes feedback control for an open and smooth sound. The original GT concept utilised the notion of internal mass to counter feedback control. This is built upon with the GT-5000 which negates feedback control through the belt-drive.

Yamaha NS-2000 speakers

Natural Sound Speaker System

Pure Carbon Fiber Woofer Cone

Improved Beryllium Midrange and tweeter Domes

Unique In-line Speaker Configuration and Rounded Baffle

Uncompromising Choice of Materials and Construction Throughout

Superbly Crafted Cabinetry

 

The lead in sound-oriented technology that has grown out of a hundred-year tradition has been purposefully expanded in this loudspeaker system. Although Yamaha sound transducers are "digital-proof" thanks to fast and precise signal processing, the NS-2000 system is a resounding testament to the fact that research has not rested in this area either.

 

Further refinement of the exclusive beryllium and carbon fiber technology, weight reduction of the membranes and unrivalled experience in processing valuable woods create the Yamaha system in a class of its own, with which digital progress can be heard.

 

The baffle with rounded edges reduces diffraction and ensures increased stereo definition. The precision housing was developed on the basis of irrefutable computer calculations, coupled with knowledge of sound. The bass membrane made of pure carbon fiber is super light and ultra-stable with a diameter of 33 cm. New beryllium domes have a drastically reduced weight of 0.028 g for the tweeter and 0.5 g for the midrange. The crossover is equipped with coils made of oxygen-free copper wire and large-dimensioned ferrite cores. Level controls for the tweeter and midrange are a matter of course in this class.

Yamaha CA-800 amplifier

Yamaha CA-800 stereo integrated amplifier offers, at a surprisingly agreeable features. Like the more expensive Yamaha CA-1000, the CA-800 has been created with emphasis on its primary function, that is to amplify the stereo signals from different program source components with the least possible distortion and without any other form of undesirable coloration. It accomplishes this objective by the use of a direct-coupled OCL complementary power amplifier, a plus/minus dual power supply system, a 3-stage direct-coupled tone control amplifier, and many other advanced features. You will note immediately that the CA-800 is designed with typical Yamaha attention to fine detail.

 

Direct-Coupled OCL Pure Complementary Stereo Power Amplifier for High Power and Low Distortion

The power amplifier of the CA-800 is the most advanced made today. This is the all-stage direct0coupled OCL pure complementary design which provides flat, linear amplification over an extremely wide bandwidth. Power for its operation is derived from an advanced plus/minus dual power supply system that combines an over-sized transformer and a pair of large 6,800 µF capacitors. Moreover, the power supply system drives all amplification stages, with the exception of the power amplifier, at a constant voltage. Such advanced design characteristics contribute greatly to the CA-800's low-range frequency response and stability, as well as to excellent performance specifications. These include RMS continuous power output of 45 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 20 - 20,000 Hz, both channels driven at 0,1 T.H.D., or 55 watts into 8 Ω , 1 kHz each channel driven, also at 0,1% T.H.D..pure, clean sound reproduction - quite enough to fill a large listening room - is only one solid reason to choose the CA-800.

 

Class-A Stereo Power Amplifier for Even Lower Distortion.

While the CA-800 is complete with a large stereo power amplifier of the Class-B operation like any other stereo amplifier available today, it also haas an exclusive feature; a switch to alter the circuit configuration of the power amplifier and convert it to a quality Class-A power amplifier. The difference is significant. A Class-B amplifier is a very effective design for transitor-type amplifiers, and delivers a high power output. A Class-A amplifier, in comparison, is less efficient, yet compensates for its inefficiency by virtually eliminating crossover distortion, which is the major source of distortion, which is the major source of distortion in the high frequency range for a transistor amplifier.

These figures underscore the importance of a Class-A amplifier; the RMS continuous power output is reduced to 10 watts per channel into 8 Ω , both channels driven at a T.H.D. of 0,1% over 20-20,000 Hz. That same distortion figure is reduced to 0,02% or less over 20 - 20,000 Hz at an output of one watt, or even to 0,015% - the very limit of the measuring instruments themselves - at 20 kHz at an output of 8 watts. Obviously, there is simply no better amplifier type to reproduce the transparent, delicate sounds of string instruments at a low volume level. Another conclusion is equally apt; the CA-800 is a most versatile stereo amplifier.

 

Four-Stage Direct-Coupled Phono Equalizer Amplifier for Transparent Tonal Quality

Since the phono equalizer enables the reproduction of the most popular source of music, the disc record, it is the key component of any hi-fi preamplifier, in the CA-800, this component is of the very highest quality, an advanced 4-stage direct-coupled amplifier employing selected low noise transistors. The virtures of this amplifier are three-fold; One; it is capable of handling a phono input signal of up to 310 mV, or approx. 100 times greater that what is required to drive it to the full output (input sensitivity is 3 mV). This capability is significant insomuch as that it practically exceeds the wide dynamic range offered these days by the latest and most advanced disc cutting techniques, as well as the new and improved pickup cartridges. Thus, you can be assured that every subtle shade of sound and every powerful burst of sound cut into your records will be reproduced without distortion. Secondly, the phono equalizer has an excellent Signal-to-Noise Ratio of 80 dB or better. This also contributes to the transparency of reproduced sound. Thirdly, absolute accuracy in the reproduction of stereo records is assured, since the phono equalizer provides an almost identical facsimile of the RIAA disc playback characteristics, keeping deviation from it to within a tolerance of ±0,2 dB.
