Hand-selected components
The Cambridge-Audio-Edge W is made up of carefully selected high-quality components. This attention to detail ensures that the amplifier produces clean, uncolored sound, allowing the listener to hear the music as it was intended. Each component is selected for its sonic properties, and the amplifier is assembled by highly skilled technicians to ensure flawless operation. This commitment to quality is evident in the Edge W's sound, which is distinguished by clarity, detail, and power.
Toroidal Twin Transformers
The Cambridge Audio Edge-W has twin toroidal transformers, which provide several advantages. To begin with, they have a high level of power while remaining stable. Second, they aid in noise and interference reduction, resulting in a cleaner and more detailed sound. Furthermore, the use of twin transformers contributes to a balanced output, lowering the risk of distortion and improving overall sonic performance.
Amplification of Class XA
The Cambridge-Audio-Edge-W employs a Class XA amplification system that combines the advantages of Class A and Class AB amplifiers. This technology enables the amplifier to operate in Class A mode for low-level signals, producing a more natural and detailed sound, while switching to Class AB mode for high-level signals, delivering high power with minimal distortion. As a result, the sound is clean and accurate, with enough power to drive even the most demanding speakers. As a result, the EdgeW is an excellent choice for audiophiles looking for a high-performance amplifier capable of handling a wide range of music genres.
Signal path is short.
The "Cambridge Audio W Edge" has a short signal path, which means that audio signals travel a very short distance between components, reducing the possibility of interference and quality loss. As a result, the sound is more accurate and transparent. Cambridge Audio's design team optimized the signal path, including the use of surface-mounted components, to reduce the length of the path and create a purer sound. The Edge-W also has Class XA amplification to keep the signal path as clean and unobstructed as possible.
Ideal partners
To create a complete hi-fi system, pair the W Cambridge Audio Edge with the Cambridge Audio Edge NQ preamp or the Cambridge Audio Edge NQ music streamer. It can also be used in conjunction with other preamplifiers or source components. The balanced inputs on the WEdge enable it to be used with balanced preamps or processors for even better sound quality. It can also drive a wide range of speakers, making it a versatile choice for any audiophile. Its sleek design ensures that it will blend in with any home audio setup.
Conclusion
To summarize, the Edge W Cambridge Audio is a high-end power amplifier with Class XA amplification, twin toroidal transformers, and hand-picked components that delivers exceptional sound quality. Its short signal path ensures that the sound is not distorted in any way, and its distinctive design makes it simple to integrate with other high-end audio systems.
