MATRIX MA-1
Perfect Creation
The all-new M series marks a milestone for Matrix Audio as it advances towards traditional Hi-Fi systems. This series includes the music streamer MS-1, the preamplifier MP-1 and the power amplifier MA-1, forming a complete flagship system of Matrix Audio that presents our understanding of Hi-Fi audio. The M series is the first lineup to adopt the new Matrix Design language, serving as a precursor to the future evolution of Matrix Audio products.
Matrix Design
Evaluating audio products from the dimensions of "listening" and "looking" has always been our consistent philosophy. From concept to design, every step contains the love for music and the pursuit of beauty. MA-1 is Matrix Audio's first Class AB power amplifier. Its industrial design showcases our concept of simplicity. With hundreds of circular perforations of varying sizes and depths arranged in an array on the simple hexahedron, resembling rhythmic beats dancing and emerging on the surface.
Multi-triode In Parallel Push-pull Output
In order to reduce the output impedance, we applied 10 ONSEMI high-power transistors in each channel to compose a push-pull amplification circuitry, which operating at a high bias current state. The static power consumption is up to 300W. At an 8-ohm load, it provides 250W output power per channel, and 450W output power per channel at a 4-ohm load.
