Introduction
The RAS300 Power amplifier is a high power 6 channel amp especially designed to be used in an 3 Way ACTIVE system. The amplifiers are directly fed from the output of 3 way
Filters with LOW, MID, & HI outputs . The RAS 300 Power-amp is designed with this in mind so it has 4 channels capable of 100Watts each and 2 channels capable of 20 Watts
each. The LOW and MID have 100W output capable Amplifiers whereas the HI has 20W capable Amplifiers. The diagram below depicts all the various modules within the system.

Amplifier Specification:
• Maximum Output: 240 watts rms into 8 Ohms, 380 watts rms into 4 Ohms
• Audio Frequency Linearity: 20 Hz – 20 kHz (+0, -0.2 dB)
• Closed Loop Gain: 32 dB
• Hum and Noise: -90 dB (input short circuit)
• Output Offset Voltage: Less than 13 mV (input short circuit)
• Phase Linearity: Less than 13° (10 Hz – 20 kHz)
• Harmonic Distortion: Less than 0.007% at rated power
• IM Distortion: Less than .009% at maximum power
In order to obtain the full output power each supply transformer is rated at 40VAC – 0 – 40VAC at 640VA. Unlike many designs relying on the
reservoir capacitors to supply peak currents, I prefer to have the raw power available from the transformer resulting in much faster transients. BTW the
reservoir capacitors per rail is 20,000uFD and a 35Amp Bridge rectifier. The power supply is capable of 16Amps peak currents depending on the
amplifier requirements.
Although the RAS300 specifications are moderate, when listening to it you will immediately experience the massive reserve power available and never
have any cause of anxiety that something is going to give in that one would when driving many amplifiers loud. You will hear nothing but reality with
no distortion at any level and this amplifier will divulge the best qualities of any equipment connected to it.
