TheMOON W5.3balanced stereo power amplifier produces 150 watts per channel
into 8 ohms, 300 watts into 4 ohms and can be configured for mono operation.
The heir apparent to the legendary MOON W-5 has arrived and encompasses all of
the circuitry improvements found in theLimited Editionseries. Employing our
world-reknowned "Advanced Rennaisance" amplification circuit, theW5.3produces
a warm, grain free sound common to some of the very best tube amplifiers, but
has the reliability of solid state designs. Of course, the tight authoritative
bottom end that MOON power amplifiers are world-reknown for is included here
at no extra charge.
Significant Design Features
A "no overall feedback" design resulting in real-time amplification, a more
accurate musical reproduction with respect to tonality, virtually non-existent
intermodulation distortion and the elimination of common phase errors
resulting from feedback · An oversized power supply · A custom proprietary
toroidal transformer design with lower magnetic, electrical and thermal loss,
yielding an improved power transfer and lower regulation factor, resulting in
increased current speed and better dynamics · Balanced circuitry up to the
output stage · Stable to any known speaker impedance · "Class" A output to 5
watts for greater efficiency · Precision matched Bipolar output devices which
offer superb linearity throughout the entire audio frequency spectrum · A
high damping factor which yields superior musical dynamics, improved signal
speed and refined timbre accuracy · Extremely rigid chassis construction to
minimize the effects of external vibrations · Accurate matching of the very
finest high quality electronic components · A very short signal path for a
faster transient response · A symmetrical circuit design · A 12 Volt trigger
for remote operations · Pure copper circuit board tracings with extremely low
impedance characteristics · Designed to be powered up at all times for
optimal performance · Low operating temperature for a longer than normal life
expectancy.

Overseas MOON W5.3RS
TheRSseriesof MOON audio components benefit from an even higher standard of
manufacturing process than the regular MOON versions. All significant
differences are contained within the circuitry and construction of each model.
RSversions are built using different materials and parts in certain areas. For
example, printed circuit boards are of a higher temperature grade than that of
the military specification FR-4 material we normally use; Their traces are
gold-plated instead of a tin/lead composite. As well, all capacitors use
improved dielectric materials.
MOONRSmodels meet and/or exceed stricter manufacturing processes as required
to pass many international safety standards such as those imposed by the E-U,
Japan and South Korea. Cosmetically, the ONLY difference is theRSlogo on the
front panel.
