Hey Mike,
You are amazing, hehehehe. Thanks so much for your efforts here. Absolutely cool.
Well, as for the data and specs, I mostly base them myself on what I got from Germany. It's true, however, that we optimized the design quite a bit over the past 2 years, and some of the changes obviously effected the specs as well. 18 k input seems a bit on the high side, however, I'd subscribe to that with the current versions of the amp before I'd go with 10 k, which is a good thing anyway. The biggie here is definitely the fact of the superb output gain of the Stratos. In that regard it's a wet dream.
As for the output power itself on the extremes, all I can say is that we put a 1 ohm dummy load on a mono, pushed it up about 80-90 %, and measured somewhere over 1000 Watts while being completely stabile , flatlining as a matter of fact. It was incredible and also extremely hot, hehehe.
Anyway, Mike, thanks again,
Klaus
