(Tel que re\u00e7u)<\/em><\/span> \u201cHigh-end is about passion, discovery, experience and technical exploration. It\u2019s not just who can make the most expensive things.\u201d said Dave Nauber<\/strong>, President of Class\u00e9. \u201cMaking more affordable products that are truly high-end is a greater challenge, which is why there is a gap in the market between offerings from the mass-market CE<\/em> companies and the high-end brands. We chose to exploit our cost advantage as part of the B&W Group<\/strong> to fill this void with some exceptional new products.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The Sigma SSP<\/em> has been optimized as a high-performance stereo preamp\/processor with video switching, multichannel processing and bass management included. Connections for USB<\/em> and Ethernet streaming augment the basic HDMI<\/em>, coax and optical digital inputs. Balanced and single-ended analog inputs, including an optional phono stage, make the Sigma SSP<\/em> a truly versatile preamp\/processor. According to Class\u00e9<\/strong>, the amplifier models are derived from their breakthrough Delta series CA-D200<\/em>; a Class D<\/em> topology that addresses the problem of dead-band-time\u2014the time when both halves of the amplifier are off\u2014once thought to be the Achilles\u2019 heel of Class D<\/em> designs. The Class\u00e9<\/strong> solution achieves an astonishingly low 3 nanosecond dead-band-time, dramatically lowering distortion and enabling numerous other design advantages. The result is said to be superbly musical sonic performance along with other class D benefits like small size, low heat dissipation and high efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nCEDIA Expo, Denver, Colorado\u2014September 10, 2014<\/span><\/b>\u2014Class\u00e9 has announced the availability of a new series of components called Sigma, featuring a 7.1 channel Surround Sound Preamp\/Processor, called Sigma SSP and two amplifiers, the AMP2 and AMP5, rated at 2x200W and 5x200W into 8 ohms respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n
