Have you ever wondered why anybody would want to use two mono amplifiers? Why not just use a stereo amplifier? There are excellent stereo amplifiers out there that play music very well, but mono blocks have a unique feature that can give you a better stereo image. When a musical peak occurs, the amplifier places a load on the power supply drawing it down slightly until it can recover. Imagine a stereo amplifier for a minute…The amplifier has two identical amplifier sections inside that share a common power supply. The same tank of juice is connected to both sides! Let’s say that a large musical peak occurs on the left channel. When this happens, the right channel suddenly sees a slight dip in the power rail. This change in the supply voltage can cause a slight modulation in the right channel. When both channels are loading the power supply, affecting each other, then the stereo image can degrade. In a mono block, the entire unit is devoted to one channel. It’s impossible for one channel to modulate the other one because they have their own power supplies and 100% of that power is dedicated to one channel only. Mono blocks have superior channel separation and stereo imaging. That full redundancy comes at a cost. Everything has to be duplicated to make two separate units. Today the price of mono blocks is very high, usually in the thousands of dollars, making them out of reach for many people. Our EconoBlock amplifier series addresses this problem by making high quality mono blocks available at lower cost because you build it yourself.
