Mark Levinson needs no introduction to audiophiles. At CES in Las Vegas, Mark Levinson announced their newest monobolock amplifier, the № 536. Mark Levinson is a devision of Harman International.
This amplifier looks to be a perfect complement to Mark Levinson’s sister speaker division, Revel, whose Ultima2 Salon and Ultima2 Studio speakers are targeted to handle amplifiers that put out 600 Watts into 6 ohm loads.
The №. 536 is evidently the successor to the Levinson № 532, which was released in 2008 and was also a dual mono design sporting 400 Watts into 4 8 ohms. The № 532 was evidently the first non-reference Mark Levinson design to be fully differential. The № 536 continues that tradition. Like many of Levinson’s current amplifiers, it will sport a Class A/B topology, feature heavy-duty hurricane binding posts, XLR/balanced and unbalanced inputs, as well as IR, RS-232, and ethernet connectivity for integration with home automation systems.
Schedule for a fall 2015 release, the Mark Levison № 536 monoblock amplifier will cost $15,000 ($30,000 for a stereo pair).
Have done some experiment with my 2012 Toyota Camry… Added a 500 watt amplifier and stuck a subwoofer in to center where the spare tire goes… Added some 6×9 Infinity Kappas in the rear and i have some deep bass with such a clarity coming out of my JBL stock system…
I could bet any money my sound system would blow this Mark Levinson…
