TMR Safe Pack & Ship Guarantee

Our Safe Pack and Ship Guarantee means we guarantee its safe arrival. Items are carefully double-boxed or custom foam-molded. For larger pieces, we palletize to ensure secure, upright delivery. In rare cases of loss or damage, we fully protect your purchase.

Shipping Cost

Shipping within the Continental USA is $699.00—this includes securing to a pallet with adequate protection and shipping via FedEx Freight to a residential address anywhere in the Continental USA. This rate can be reduced by $60 if a commercial delivery address is available or if the item can be picked up at the nearest FedEx Freight depot. FedEx Freight charges a residential delivery fee otherwise, which is included in our flat rate charge.

We DO NOT offer international shipping.

Product Highlights

The Boulder 1160 is a solid-state stereo power amplifier delivering 300 watts per channel into 8 ohms with a maximum output current of 33 amperes. Designed to anchor reference-grade audio setups, this component drives demanding loudspeaker loads with effortless dynamic authority. Its fully balanced architecture features 56 output transistors alongside a proprietary 983 gain stage running heavily biased in Class A. Dual power transformers housed in welded steel enclosures guarantee dead-silent operation, while custom wing-nut spade terminals and Ethernet-enabled supervisory circuits ensure uncompromising signal transmission and seamless system integration.

Critical consensus across publications like The Absolute Sound and Hi-Fi+ praises the amplifier for its absolute transparency, expansive soundstage, and uncolored tonal balance. Reviewers repeatedly highlight its vice-like grip on low frequencies, citing it as a benchmark for fast, articulate, and deeply authoritative bass performance. Critics also commend its lightning-fast transient speed and resolution, noting that it unveils delicate micro-details while maintaining complete freedom from listening fatigue.

Anchoring your playback chain with this amplifier guarantees absolute mastery over your loudspeakers without sacrificing subtle musical nuances. It provides serious audiophiles with an uncompromising foundation where raw power, precision engineering, and three-dimensional realism converge to elevate every listening session.
