p>State-of-the-Art Monaural Amplifier

The highest sound quality at all volume levels, flat frequency response into any load, and stable into the most difficult loads. The Statement M1 is a state-of-the-art monaural amplifier delivering 1,000 watts into 8 ohms and 2,000 watts into 4 ohms or less with THD remaining under 0.1% from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Designed and engineered in our advanced research center in Ottawa, Canada, the M1 is manufactured in our Toronto facility.

More than just a slim, technologically advanced monaural design, the M1 demonstrates that Class D architecture isn't fundamentally flawed, it simply hasn't been implemented well in the past, mainly because it required such a heavy commitment to R&D. We’re fortunate to have the in-house resources to create such a groundbreaking product and one listen will reveal the truly extraordinary nature of this amplifier.

  • Full resolution of all of the sonic subtleties and complexities in the input signal.
  • Accurate reproduction of the full dynamic range of the signal.
  • Output stage is never allowed to clip.
  • No compression as output increases.
  • Flat frequency response into any load, without having to resort to digital conversion or equalization to compensate.
  • Stable into all loads including open circuit and short circuit.
  • A low noise floor.
  • Exceptional efficiency with low heat output.
  • An amp so mechanically silent it will suit even the quietest listening room.
  • A design that allows multiple units to be stacked with no danger of overheating.
  • All of the above delivered at a price point that while not inexpensive, delivers virtually limitless dynamic fidelity.
