As I thought, the Rowland Model 925 power amplifier has just been released to the North American market. Here is what I have learned this far about this new amplifier:
MODEL 925 4-chassis monoblock power amp: 2 audio chassis and 2 power supply chassis
OUTPUT POWER: 430 watts @ 8 ohms/850 watts @ 4 ohms per channel
Power supply: 2400 W regulated DC SMPS per channel, with Active Power Factor Correction (PFC)
FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 5 Hz - 50 kHz
INPUT IMPEDANCE: 40k ohms
THD + NOISE: 0.004%, 20 Hz- 20 kHz
DAMPING FACTOR: > 1000, 20 Hz - 20 kHz
OVERALL GAIN: Switchable 26/32 dB
Combined AMPLIFIER chassis & POWER SUPPLY chassis WEIGHT: 160.4 lb / 73 kg (per channel)
TOTAL DIMENSIONS (H/W/D): 16.5" x 15.5" x 16.25" (per channel) 419mm x 394mm x 413mm
List price: $58K USD.
Thank goodness that each uber-hefty 160 Lbs per channel are split between an audio chassis and its power supply chassis!
