The MPA-502 is an incredible five-channel power amplifier with an impressive heritage. Introduced as the MPA-500 in 1992, it became the power amplifier that was utilized to assist in writing THX's original amplifier specification. Based on an audiophile configuration, where a mammoth power supply resides in its own chassis (MPS-502) independent of the chassis housing the five amplifier modules, the MPA-502 is the most powerful multi-channel power amplifier in the world. In fact, when operating on a standard 115V AC outlet, you cannot even force the amplifier into clipping because to do so requires 28 amperes of wall current. The MPA-502 incorporates a 2500 Watt custom torroidal power supply in combination with 500,000µF of capacitance. This huge power reservoir ensures that the MPA-502 has plenty of punch for even the most dramatic scenes. Suffice it to say, that the MPA-502 is as good as it gets. For systems requiring back surround speakers (7.1), ADA provides the exact same amplifier modules in a two-channel version, the PF-2502.
