Power wars – Goldmund's new Telos 4800 monaural amplifier comes in just above the kilowatt ceiling with 1'050W into 8Ω accompanied by a S/NR of 117dB or a noise floor of less than 3µV whilst claiming stability into very low impedances and distortion of just 0.005%. Unusually there are analogue and digital inputs and the circuit's voltage gain is adjustable in 3dB steps to adapt to various system configurations. The press release did not include pricing information. Perhaps Goldmund clients don't care about that spec? Those who do can find it on this PDF: CHF 220'000. Each. For a pair that's more than the base price of a 2024 Rolls-Royce Spectre.
