State-of-the-Art Monaural Amplifier
The highest sound quality at all volume levels, flat frequency response into any load, and stable into the most difficult loads. The Statement M1 is a state-of-the-art monaural amplifier delivering 1,000 watts into 8 ohms and 2,000 watts into 4 ohms or less with THD remaining under 0.1% from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Designed and engineered in our advanced research center in Ottawa, Canada, the M1 is manufactured in our Toronto facility.
More than just a slim, technologically advanced monaural design, the M1 demonstrates that Class D architecture isn't fundamentally flawed, it simply hasn't been implemented well in the past, mainly because it required such a heavy commitment to R&D. We’re fortunate to have the in-house resources to create such a groundbreaking product and one listen will reveal the truly extraordinary nature of this amplifier.
Cutting Edge Technology & Design
M1 Specifications
| Power Output continuous, 20 Hz to 20 kHz, <0.1% THD+N | |
| 8 Ω | 1000 W |
| 4 Ω | 2000 W |
| 3 Ω | 2400 W |
| 2 Ω | >2000 W depending on line voltage regulation |
| With 120V AC supply the amplifier’s maximum output into impedances 4 Ω and lower, as well as its maximum duration, vary depending on line voltage regulation. | |
| Frequency Response 20 Hz to 20 kHz | |
| Open circuit | +/- 0.1 dB |
| 8 Ω | +/- 0.1 dB |
| 4 Ω | +/- 0.1 dB |
| 2 Ω | +/- 0.2 dB |
| Power Bandwidth 1000 W at 8 Ω | 5 Hz to 45 kHz |
| THD+N at 1 kHz, 8 Ω | |
| 1 W | 0.01 % |
| 10 W | 0.01 % |
| 100 W | <0.03 % |
| 1000 W | <0.06 % |
| IMD 19 kHz + 20 kHz, CCIF | 0.003% |
| S/N Ratio ref. 1000 W, IEC-A | 113 dB |
| Voltage Gain | 29 dB |
| Input Sensitivity | 100 mV for 1 W output, 3.2 V for 1000 W output (8 Ω) |
| Input Impedance | 10 kΩ (RCA), 20 kΩ (XLR) |
| Damping Factor | 800 to 1400 depending on frequency |
| XLR Configuration | Pin 1: Ground, Pin 2: Positive, Pin 3: Negative |
| POWER REQUIREMENTS | |
| Consumption in a typical music/theater installation | |
| standby mode, 120V mains | <1 W |
| standby mode, 240V mains | <2 W |
| operate mode, idle | 33 W |
| typical operation | 300 W |
| Where mains voltage is 120V, one dedicated 15A circuit per amplifier is recommended depending on speaker. A 20A circuit is adequate for two amplifiers playing music where speaker impedance is 8 Ω. This product operates from a single phase AC power source that supplies between 108V and 264V at a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz. | |
