Proton AA-1660 6 channel power amp

CharlieLaub · 14th May 2011, 03:59 PM

I'm offering for sale a multichannel power amp made by Proton, which had an excellent reputation for making good power amps before getting out of the business. This model manufactured in the early 1990's and it still works great today. This is a great way to get into active multiway speakers using an outboard crossover.

Up to two pairs of channels can be bridged to give 150W channels, so you operate with 4,5, or 6 channels.

PROTON AA 1660 six-channel amplifier specifications:

Rated output: (20Hz ~ 20KHz) 60W @ 8 Ohm; 150W @ 8 Ohm (Bridged)
Total harmonic distortion: <0.05%
Intermodulation Distortion: <0.01%
Damping Factor:> 100
Frequency Response: (20Hz ~ 20KHz) +-0.5dB
Bandwidth: (total harmonic distortion < 0.1%) 10Hz ~ 50KHz
Input Sensitivity: 1.0Vrms
left and right channel separation: (@1kHz) 60dB
signal to noise ratio: 113dB
Dimensions: 42 (W) x12 (H) x39.5 (D) cm
Weight: 12.6 kg
power consumption: 700W max

I can post or Email pics of the actual item, but it basically it is in very good condition and looks like this:

I'm asking $240 + shipping from 95616. Shipping weight is about 30 lbs. Local pickup OK. Guaranteed not to be DOA. Shipping to USA only.

PM and/or post reply if interested.

This has now been relisted at a lower price:
Proton AA-1660 6-channel bridgeable amplifier - RARE | eBay

Lots of pics of the actual item, in excellent cosmetic and working condition, are viewable in the listing.

I also made a mistake in my first post in this thread:
THREE pairs of channels can be bridged, for 3 x 150W power.
