5 kilowatts.

Each.

The new Telos 5000 is one of, if not the, most powerful audio amplifier available. 

All the info after the jump...

Only 25 of the 651-pound Telos 5000 amplifiers will be made, and most are already sold. For the few that are able to get their hands on one, they're in for a treat.

The Telos 5000 is a 37-inch tall monster, sports a claimed THD+Noise rating of 0.0005%. There are some fantastic amps on the market that don't do better than 0.005%.

Frequency response is a claimed 0 Hz to 300,000 Hz, +/- 0.1 dB.

At +/- 3 dB (what most "normal" products spec out), the range is a claimed 0 to 2.5 megahertz.

This is so far beyond what any mortal speaker or ear can produce or hear it is stunning.

The power rating is a clamed 5000 watts, hence the name, into 2 ohms. Into 8 ohms, where most speakers spec out (though resistance will vary with frequency), the amp does a still staggering 1,250 watts.

For transients, like percussive hits, the amp can produce up to 6050 watts.

The claimed signal to noise ratio is 122 dB. Sixteen separate transformers supply power for this beast.

The internal D/A (there are analog inputs as well) is called the Alize 7 and has a resolution of over 130 dB.

Few amps will ever hold a candle to the performance of the Telos 5000. The few that can afford, and the few that we'll even have a chance to hear it, should consider themselves lucky.

PRICE: Approx $189,600... each
