BRYSTON 14B ST MANUAL
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS:
Maximum continuous output power with both channels driven can only be realized
on a 120 Volt 20 Amp or 230 Volt 10 Amp version of the 14B ST
Music is a ?Dynamic and Transient? condi-If more power is required, then a 14B - 20

Power rating: 500 Watts into 8 W Thd + N .005% 20Hz to 20kHz at 500 watts /8 ohms
800 Watts into 4 W IMD .005% 60 Hz + 7kHz mixed 4 to 1
Input impedance: Noise - 115db 20Hz to 22kHz bandpass
balanced 15 k W
unbalanced 50 k W
Sensitivity: Current consumption:
bal input reg 2 Volt in = 100 Watts / 8 W Both channels at full power with 8 ohm loads = 19.1A.
