Stratos Mono Extreme

About the Stratos Mono Extreme

The Odyssey Audio Stratos Mono Extreme is an upgraded version of the Stratos Mono amplifier, featuring over 200 Watts RMS power output at 8 Ohms per unit. It employs a high Class A/AB design with an additional 60,000µF memory bank totaling 180,000µF per unit, and dual 400 VA Plitron transformers for a total of 800 VA each. The amplifier delivers more than 120 amps current and uses high-quality components such as Nichicon Muse capacitors, Vishay/Dale resistors, and extra WIMA metal film capacitors. It supports 2 Ohm load stability, has a frequency range from 1 to 600,000 Hz, and maintains a very low total harmonic distortion (<0.04%). The unit weighs over 66 lbs (30 kg) and measures 19" width x 18" depth x 7" height (48.3 x 45.7 x 17.8 cm). Inputs include RCA and XLR (bridged). Power consumption at idle is approximately 35 Watts. The amplifier is designed for audiophiles seeking high current delivery, low distortion, and robust build quality with anti-vibration dual thickness PCB and Sanken Epitaxial Planar Transistors (2SA1216 & 2SC2922). It is backed by a 20-year parts warranty from Odyssey Audio.
