Product Description:
The Michi M8 Monoblock Amplifier delivers remarkable control and commanding power, blending technical precision with refined design. It outputs 1,080 watts of Class AB power into 8 ohms and an extraordinary 1,800 watts into 4 ohms, making it ideal for driving even the most demanding loudspeakers. At its core are two custom-designed, low-noise toroidal transformers—manufactured in-house—and four patented British slit-foil capacitors that ensure deep, controlled bass response even under heavy loads.
To ensure precision and stability, the M8 features 32 high-current output transistors, reducing stress on individual components and preserving timing, dynamics, and musical energy. Each element within the amplifier has been carefully selected and acoustically tuned, with a fully balanced circuit layout that contributes to its transparency and sonic refinement.

On the front panel, a high-resolution display offers either a peak power meter or spectrum analyzer view. Rear connectivity includes both XLR and RCA inputs, dual sets of Michi binding posts, remote control access, and complete RS232 and Ethernet integration for seamless system control. The M8 stands as a benchmark in power amplification, housed in a sophisticated industrial design.
