4.3 אינערלעכע קאָמפּאָנענטן

The Gustard H26 features a fully balanced discrete Class A amplifier design, utilizing 8 pairs of power transistors to ensure robust driving capability and precise control. The use of discrete components allows for fine-tuning of each stage, optimizing performance. The pre-stage incorporates two LME49720 dual op-amps.

The power supply section is equipped with two custom 50W audio-specific toroidal transformers, one dedicated to each channel. This design minimizes cross-channel interference and ensures stable power delivery. Multiple low-noise regulators and Nichicon capacitors contribute to the unit's clean power and overall audio quality.
