What impedance speakers can I use with the EDGE W?
You can use speakers with an impedance between 4-8 Ohms with the EDGE W. The EDGE W outputs 100W RMS into 8 Ohms and 200W RMS into 4
Ohms.
What amplification class does the EDGE W use?
The EDGE W uses Class XA amplification. For Class XA, the crossover point is moved so that both sets of transistors are always on until the signal
reaches a loud enough level.
This means that for low level signals, the amplifier is essentially operating as a Class A amplifier and it is only when the signal is sufficiently loud
enough that the transistors switch over. Any crossover distortion is therefore masked within the signal.
