VAC Statement 455 iQ Musicbloc™ Dual Mono Power Amplifier

The Statement 455 iQ Musicbloc™ delivers exceptional sonic authenticity through sophisticated engineering and meticulous construction. This dual-mono power amplifier operates at 230 watts per channel or switches to 460-watt mono mode, accommodating single or biamplified speaker configurations. Fully balanced circuitry and switchable input modes optimize performance across 2 to 16-ohm speaker impedances. Vibration isolation—featuring VAC-designed feet and three-point decoupling assemblies—protects against external interference, while 56 pounds of magnetically shielded power transformers ensure stability. Hand-selected Gold Lion KT88 output tubes paired with VAC's patented iQ Continuous Automatic Bias System maintain optimal tube performance and signal integrity. Premium components throughout—custom audio capacitors, high-grade resistors, and silver-copper internal wiring—combine with direct-coupled 6SN7GTB input stages operating in pure Class A1 to preserve musical nuance and dynamic presence. Handcrafted in the United States for lasting quality.
