MARK LEVINSON DEBUTS No433 POWER AMPLIFIER
— Expanding its range of 400 series power amplifiers, the new No433 offers greater accessibility to the Mark Levinson legacy of superior sound and unrivaled performance —
CEDIA EXPO, INDIANAPOLIS, IN, September 5, 2003 — The Harman Specialty Group is pleased to announce the launch of the Mark Levinson No433 power amplifier, the third product to become available this year in the company’s new 400 series of power amplifiers.Based on the No434 and No436 power amplifiers, the No433 is a triple-mono 200-watt power amplifier with all the authority and finesse that distinguish the Mark Levinson sound. Featuring a compact chassis and remarkable bottom-end heft and weight, the No433 takes command of the music with astounding confidence, dynamics, and ease. Like all 400 series multi-mono power amplifiers, the No433 doubles its rated 8-ohm power at 4 ohms. Combine that with massive independent power supplies for each channel, and the No433 is an appropriate companion for virtually any loudspeaker. Unlike the No434 and No436, the new 400 series power amplifiers are entirely convection cooled, and therefore do not require fans. The new amplifiers feature individual heat sinks for each channel to maintain a safe operating temperature while delivering continuous output power. In addition, a balanced voltage-gain circuit allows the 400 series amplifiers to generate more precise signals with lower noise. The balanced circuit includes ultra-high performance parts that allow this advanced design to reach its full potential.
The 400 series power amplifiers represent significant advancements compared to their predecessors. They are better sounding, more powerful, physically smaller, rack mountable, and the best value to date in Mark Levinson amplifiers, as well as the first series to feature an amplifier with more than two channels. The three new multi-mono 400 series power amplifiers effectively replace the popular 300 series as the entry level Mark Levinson power amplifiers. The dual-mono No432 and No431 are available now and triple-mono No433 is expected to ship by the end of the year.
