About the BPA-3
The Proceed BPA-3 is a 3-channel power amplifier introduced in 1998, designed with a multiple monaural architecture and a robust output stage to ensure high fidelity and reliability. It delivers 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms with a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz and a total harmonic distortion of 0.1%. The amplifier features balanced inputs, a low impedance power supply, and extensive protection circuitry. It has a gain of 29 dB, input sensitivity of 1.2V, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 80dB. The BPA-3 is capable of driving speaker loads down to 4 ohms and weighs approximately 27.7 kg. It is praised for its detailed sound resolution, warm tonal character, and tight bass, making it suitable for both home theater and high-end music listening. The amplifier runs cool despite its heavy and overbuilt design, with a large heat sink constituting much of its weight. It is considered a high-end amplifier with a reputation for quality and durability among audiophiles.
