The Reference Series Altair IV mono-block power amplifier was designed to establish a new audio benchmark regardless of cost.  With the ability to produce peaks of over 3.5 kilowatts and 45 amps, Altair IV will redefine the performance of any loudspeaker to which it is connected.

Far from being just a power-house, Altair IV is a technological tour-de-force, establishing hitherto unknown standards of detail, dynamic linearity and agility, leading to a staggeringly real musical performance. 

Featuring LIPS2® the Altairs can be configured to receive a full level audio signal from the Pyxis preamplifier with the volume being adjusted at the input stage of the Altair.  This unique approach ensures the maximum signal to noise ratio and resolution of the musical signal is always maintained, even when listening at very low levels.
