Canor Virtus S1S Solid State Dual-Mono Power Amplifier

Introducing the Sublime Virtus S1S

Reference Line Solid State Dual-Mono PowerAmplifier from Canor

Virtus S1S is a brand-new solid-state reference power amplifier in class AB with the first few watts in pure class A.

The "Virtus" was a specific virtue in Ancient Rome and it carries connotations of valour, manliness, excellence, courage, character, and worth, perceived as masculine strengths.

Highlights
The unique way of heat dissipation using copper plates also contributes to reducing the output impedance.
Error correction – specialised local feedback circuits linearise amplifier output stage.
Extremely ultra-low distortion – Virtus S1S delivers top-notch ultra-low distortion in its category
Dual Mono Configuration

This design divides, exceptional channel, separation and minimises crosstalk resulting in an ultra clear stereo experience. Characterised by superior special quality. 

By isolating the secretary for edge channel, the system, maximises, audio, fidelity clarity and position, thereby delivering an immersive, listening experience.

Heat Dissipation

The heat generated by the power transistors is effectively dissipated through the use of copper plates to which the transistors are directly attached. This allows for rapid and efficient transfer of heat away from critical power components.

This approach not only prevents overheating, it also enhances the overall performance and reliability of the system by insuring that the transistors remain within optimal operating temperature.

High Filtration Capacity

The Virtus S1S amplifier is equipped with a high-capacity filter that stabilises the supply voltage and its output status, allowing it to manage and smooth out any dynamic spikes that may occur. 

This ensures a consistent and ripple free performance, which is crucial for delivering clear and distortion free, audio signals.

XLR & RCA Input

To accommodate variety of audio input configurations, the Virtus, S1S is designed to accommodate a variety of input configurations featuring support for both balanced and unbalanced connections.

It includes one pair of XLR inputs along with an additional pair of RCA inputs, allowing for versatile connectivity options to suit the your audio needs.

Transistor Powering

Power transistors are powered through a copper plate, featuring a cross section of up to 350mm2. 

This innovative design significantly minimises the internal resistance of the power source resulting in remarkable improvements in the dynamics of the amplifier by effectively managing conductivity. It allows for a smoother and more efficient energy transfer, ultimately enhancing the overall performance and responsiveness of the amplifier system.
