About the Medusa
The Rogue Audio Medusa is a hybrid stereo power amplifier combining a vacuum-tube input stage with a high-power Class-D output stage based on modified Hypex modules. It delivers 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms, with a specified frequency response of 5Hz–30kHz (±1dB), typical total harmonic distortion below 0.1%, and an input impedance of 200k ohms. The amplifier includes balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs, speaker binding posts, and a standby function intended to reduce wear on the input tubes while leaving the output section active. Its high damping factor and substantial power supply are designed to provide strong control of demanding loudspeakers.
