Carver’s TFM-55x is the amplifier of choice for home theater installations, particularly when combined with audiophile music systems where both absolute sonic purity and ample power reserves are indispensable. To meet or exceed demanding criteria for state-of-the-art home theater sound, Carver engineers developed the TFM-55x based on circuits proven in our highly successful TFM-35x. With power output boosted to a healthy 380 watts per channel, the TFMM-55x bring virtually any loudspeaker under tight, authoritative control with effortless ease. Because the TFM-55x is capable of simultaneous high voltage and high current, compared to conventional designs it reproduces instantaneous dynamic peaks with superior accuracy. If you want to hear the sounds of cannon-fire and seismic disaster with shuddering impact, a TFM-55x in bridged mono mode will deliver 1000 watts of thundering power to your subwoofer system. In the TFM-55x, Carver’s unswerving commitment to quality is reflected in the finer details: dual analog meters with range selection switch; gold-plated input jacks; and heavy-duty, multi-way output binding posts. If you’ve always thought a power amplifier couldn’t add much to your home theater experience, be prepared for a pleasant awakening when you audition Carver’s superlative TFM-55x. Features
