Power Amplifiers  Mark Levinson Nº 531H Monoblock Power
Amplifier   Design And Setup  The Nº 500H amplifiers are all-new
designs from Mark Levinson. They incorporate many typical
Levinson design features, while allowing a discretionary influx
of new ideas. The Nº 500H amplifiers are a little smaller and
lighter than most Levinson amps. They are designed to provide
nimble power into real-world loads with good transient response
and ample power for every day program material  Like most Mark
Levinson amplifiers, the Nº 500H series are fully-differential
amps. This means that the signal remains balanced from the line
level input to the speaker outputs. And similar to other Mark
Levinson amps, the Nº 500H amplifiers feature numerous output
devices. In the case of the Nº 531H, there are 16 output
transistors per channel.  Another design hallmark of Mark
Levinson amplifiers is the inclusion of a lot of capacitance for
each amplifier channel. So the design of the Nº 531H includes a
substantial amount of capacitance f
