Nakamichi FHA100 amplifier

Nakamichi FHA100 Amplifier

The Nakamichi FHA100 is a powerful Class D monoblock from the Fidela series, designed for maximum performance and absolute stability even under extreme loads. Its design, selection of top-tier components, and extremely robust power supply make this amplifier an ideal choice for powering high-performance subwoofers in top-tier setups. Inside the amplifier, there are 16 power transistors 50A60VMOS ensuring stable power supply and high current reserve. The power section is managed by 14 Infineon MOSFET transistors (20A/200V), ensuring maximum efficiency and uncompromised performance. The power supply section features a copper T45 transformer along with a pure copper output coil, ensuring reliability, low distortion, and thermal stability. The amplifier is equipped with a 13200 µF capacitor bank, providing high dynamics and immediate response even during demanding musical passages. In the signal path, there are ST operational amplifiers and ON Semiconductor optocouplers, ensuring high precision processing without noise and interference. The entire construction is set in a precisely machined aluminum alloy chassis with gold-plated terminals (100A for output, 300A for power supply), guaranteeing not only electrical stability but also long lifespan and top mechanical properties.

About Nakamichi

The history of Nakamichi dates back to 1948, when it was founded in Japan by Etsuro Nakamichi. The journey to fulfill his dreams began with the establishment of a small research institute, Nakamichi Research Corporation, in Tokyo, Japan, which provided research on sonars and magnets and development for major brands, government entities, universities, and organizations. Since then, it has established itself as a trusted creator of high-quality products, the result of intensive scientific work, a passion for sound, and a commitment to providing uncompromised quality and performance. In 1972, Takeshi Nakamichi joined Nakamichi Corporation, closely associated with the company's expansion at the time and deeply involved in all legendary Nakamichi audio products sold in Asia, America, and Europe, including the introduction of the Nakamichi 1000, the world's first cassette deck. He was considered one of the world’s top acoustic and sound engineers, capable of combining top-quality sound with the advantages of the ingenious design of audio products by Koza Kobayashi, the brand's chief engineer at the time. The amplifiers, players, and car radios of that era are today among legends, yet Nakamichi remains successful, producing products for home and vehicle sound systems. The manufacturer’s thoughtfully designed portfolio continues to expand, and all products offer an interesting balance of price and quality. Especially the higher model ranges strive to honor the legacy of Etsuro Nakamichi, whose name continues to be reflected in the brand's products today.
