{"product_id":"wattson-audio-madison-power-amplifier","title":"Wattson Audio Madison Power Amplifier","description":"The Wattson Audio Madison power amplifier is a solid-state, low-feedback Class AB design delivering 50 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 75 watts into 4 ohms, and 100 watts into 2 ohms, or up to 150 watts into 2 ohms in mono mode. Developed in collaboration with Swiss reference marque CH Precision, this compact component anchors two-channel systems with agile speaker control and scalable versatility. Its fully symmetrical, discrete circuit drives high-power bipolar output transistors from an external 36-volt, 350-watt regulated DC power supply. Housed in a solid-billet aluminum chassis, it features stereo, bi-amp, and monaural modes, selectable 20 dB or 26 dB gain, plus balanced XLR and single-ended RCA inputs.\n\nThe amplifier won a 2026 Editors' Choice Award from The Absolute Sound, earning praise for fusing tube-like warmth with transistor control. Critics at The Absolute Sound and The Audio Beat highlight its expansive three-dimensional soundstage, believable instrument sizing, and performer layering. Reviewers also commend its rhythmic coherence and composure across complex passages.\n\nAdding this Swiss amplifier to your setup brings reference-caliber circuit pedigree without crowding your rack. With mono and bi-amp modes ready to scale alongside future loudspeaker upgrades, it delivers lasting musical immersion.","brand":"Wattson Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68690974114073,"sku":"102624","price":4899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/4225\/1545\/files\/102624-4.jpg?v=1794613929","url":"https:\/\/tmraudio.com\/products\/wattson-audio-madison-power-amplifier","provider":"The Music Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
