Mono Power From Mola Mola’s New Ossetra Amplifier

Coming just in time for the holidays, say hello (twice) to the new Mola Mola Ossetra mono amplifiers.

What makes the Ossetra special? I’ll let Mola Mola do the talking:

The amplifier bandwidth of over 100kHz keeps the frequency response absolutely flat within the audio band. The minimal load dependency establishes absolute consistency, irrespective of loudspeaker load. The input stage distortion is below our current measurement threshold at approximately -150dB (~0,000003%), ensuring an immaculate power stage performance.

Output power is rated at 350/700/900W into 8/4/2 Ohms from the proprietary Mola Mola Class-D Trajectum amplifier technology that fits inside a shoe box sized and lovely looking wave-topped chassis.

The Ossetra comes equipped with bi-wired outputs, single-ended RCA and balanced XLR inputs and a toggle switch to choose between ’em.

From Mola Mola:

For the Ossetra we designed all new discrete class “A” gain stages, which create most of the gain needed in this high feedback amplifier design. These gain stages are designed to have high open loop bandwidth, individually tailored to their specific tasks in the loop filter. With these new gain stages we have been able to change the gain structure of the entire amplifier without any ill effects. Thus allowing us to optimise noise and distortion performance of the complete system. The resulting amount of feedback around the power stage is where the real difference is.

The Mola Mola Ossetra Mono Amplifiers will begin shipping in early December with an asking price of $25,000 per pair.
