Audio Research D400 Mk ll Stereo Power Amplifier. The D400MKIIl uses direct-coupled, high- current Multiple-Emitter Transistors (or METs) in their output stages (as well as for input-stage drivers). These devices have the rugged, high- heat, high-current capability of single emitter bipolar transistors (which can have a rougher, harder sonic character), but they also have a natural sweetness and musicality often associated with MOSFET transistors (which can be more fragile and prone to failure). In short, the METs deliver the best of both worlds. The D400MKII has both single-ended and balanced (XLR) input connectors, allowing easy connection to preamplifiers having either type of output. In addition, there is a second set of inverting single-ended inputs, thereby allowing balanced operation in two different modes. This particular machine is in excellent condition complete with manual. For further information go to http://www.arcdb.ws/D400/D400.html A true classic from the William Zane Johnson stable.
