The MOON 760A is a high-end dual-mono power amplifier for audiophile systems that demand control, transparency, and dynamic scale. It delivers 130 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 260 watts per channel into 4 ohms, with balanced XLR and single-ended RCA inputs for flexible system matching. Its no-overall-feedback circuit, oversized toroidal power supply, and proprietary MOON output transistors are engineered for refined tone, powerful bass grip, and fast transient response. For advanced installations, the 760A adds bridged-mono capability, bi-wire speaker outputs, RS-232, and 12V trigger integration.

Features & Specs
Dual-mono architecture
Each channel operates independently, helping preserve channel separation, stability, and dynamic control in high-performance stereo systems.
High-current power delivery
The 760A delivers 130 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 260 watts per channel into 4 ohms, with bridged-mono capability for substantially higher single-channel output.
Low-feedback signal path
MOON’s no-overall-feedback circuit and short signal path are intended to improve tonal accuracy, transient behavior, and musical realism.
Balanced connectivity
With both XLR and RCA inputs, the amplifier fits a wide range of systems, while the balanced input path is especially appealing in premium installations and longer cable runs.
Premium internal and mechanical design
A custom toroidal transformer, oversized dual-mono power supply, proprietary MOON output devices, rigid chassis, and aircraft-grade heatsinks support long-term performance and thermal stability.
Flexible system integration
RS-232, 12V trigger input/output, bi-wire-capable speaker terminals, and bridged-mono operation make the 760A easy to integrate into serious two-channel or custom-installed setups.

MOON 760A Power Amplifier Certified Reserved
The MOON 760A Power Amplifier is a high-end dual-mono stereo power amplifier built for audiophile systems that need serious current delivery, refined tonal accuracy, and strong speaker control in a slimmer Evolution-series chassis. Its DC-coupled, balanced differential design combines a no-overall-feedback circuit, an oversized dual-mono power supply, proprietary MOON Bipolar Output transistors, and Class A output for the first 5 watts, helping it deliver open mids, convincing dimensionality, fast transient response, and authoritative bass. With balanced XLR and single-ended RCA inputs, bi-wire-capable speaker outputs, bridged-mono flexibility, and RS-232/12V trigger integration, the 760A is designed for both reference two-channel listening and premium custom-installed systems.
The MOON Certified Reserve Standard
Every MOON Certified product meets a strict manufacturer standard:
Fully tested, refurbished, and certified by MOON technicians
Includes new packaging and complete accessory packs
Technician sign-off certification included
Backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty
What It's Good At:
Driving demanding speakers with stable dual-mono current delivery and strong bass authority
Preserving detail, timbre, and soundstage depth with MOON’s no-overall-feedback amplifier architecture
Getting the most from balanced systems through fully balanced differential circuitry and XLR connectivity
Scaling from stereo playback to higher-output mono use with bridged-mono capability
Integrating cleanly into advanced systems with RS-232 and 12V trigger input/output
Reducing vibration and thermal compromise with an ultra-rigid chassis, aircraft-grade heatsinks, and an oversized power supply

MOON 760A Q&A:
What kind of amplifier is the MOON 760A?
It is a two-channel dual-mono power amplifier with balanced configuration, a DC-coupled Class A/B design, and Class A operation for the first 5 watts.
How much power does the 760A deliver?
In stereo mode, it delivers 130 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 260 watts per channel into 4 ohms. MOON also lists 500 watts in bridged mono at 8 ohms, and its amplifier chart shows 500 watts per channel into 2 ohms.
Can the 760A be used in bridged mono mode?
Yes. The manual states that it can be converted to bridged-mono operation and specifies the use of a Simaudio XLR-BRIDGE Y-cable to feed both channels from one input signal.
What inputs does it offer, and can XLR and RCA be connected at the same time?
It provides one balanced XLR input and one single-ended RCA input per channel. Either mode can be used, but both should not be connected at the same time, and MOON recommends balanced XLR when possible.
Does it support bi-wiring?
Yes. Each channel uses heavy-duty gold-plated speaker binding posts, and the rear panel is designed to accommodate bi-wiring.
What control and integration connections are included?
The rear panel includes an RS-232 port plus one 12V trigger input and one 12V trigger output, which can also be used for daisy-chaining another power amplifier on the same trigger circuit.
Does the 760A include protection or diagnostic features?
Yes. Its self-diagnostic system monitors overheating and DC at the input. The front-panel LED blinks twice for DC protection, three times for overheating, and four times for an unknown problem.
Should the amplifier stay powered on, and does it need break-in time?
MOON says the 760A is designed to remain powered up for optimal performance. The manual also notes a 300-hour break-in period, and after being powered down for several days it may need a few hours to return to optimum performance.
