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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe MOON Certified Reserve Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eEvery MOON Certified product meets a strict manufacturer standard:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFully tested, refurbished, and certified by MOON technicians\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIncludes new packaging and complete accessory packs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eTechnician sign-off certification included\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBacked by a 5-year manufacturer warranty\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eWhat It's Good At:\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDriving demanding speakers with stable dual-mono current delivery and strong bass authority\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePreserving detail, timbre, and soundstage depth with MOON’s no-overall-feedback amplifier architecture\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGetting the most from balanced systems through fully balanced differential circuitry and XLR connectivity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScaling from stereo playback to higher-output mono use with bridged-mono capability\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrating cleanly into advanced systems with RS-232 and 12V trigger input\/output\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReducing vibration and thermal compromise with an ultra-rigid chassis, aircraft-grade heatsinks, and an oversized power supply\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch4\u003eMOON 760A Full Specifications:\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProduct type: Dual-mono stereo power amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNumber of channels: 2\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConfiguration: Balanced \/ dual-mono\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAmplifier design: DC-coupled Class A\/B with Class A output to 5 watts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCircuit topology: No overall feedback;
