Description :
The black original Audiolab 8000P stereo power amplifier was loved by many but also hated by a few others. The main criticism being that it could sound a little sterile, where as those people that loved the Audiolab 8000P amplifier pointed to it's excellent imaging and bass.

Capable of swinging a 40 amp instantaneous current when under duress from head-bangers and fogeys who want maximum realism from the cannons in the 1812 overture, this is an amplifier capable of taming all but the most evil speaker loads. There is power, delicacy, transparency, high resolution, and neutrality aplenty, just the attributes needed in amplification. Together with the Audiolab 8000C, they offer outstanding sound quality, with design and performance refinements that have hitherto only been available from a small number of far more expensive products. The Audiolab amplifiers are fully compatible with all modern Hi-Fi components and loudspeaker systems.

With their slim styling and attractive finish the Audiolab 8000C and 8000P are easily accomodated in the owner's living environment. The controls are carefully positioned and spaced for maximum operating convenience. Critical attention has been given to the choice of electronic components, materials, circuits and layouts so that sound quality is never compromised. The Audiolab amplifiers incorporate many technical innovations which are the results of elegant and cost effective engineering. While listening, many people will know why Audiolab amplifiers are Musical, Affordable and Logical...
