In stereo mode, it provides 50W per channel (8Ω) through a single-ended amplification design that accepts both XLR and RCA inputs. Switch to bridge mono mode and CHORUS takes a single input, converts it into a balanced signal, and outputs 120W (8Ω) of true balanced power. For the ultimate listening experience, pair two CHORUS units in bridge mono mode for 120W per channel with complete left\/right electrical isolation, eliminating crosstalk and delivering a wider, more precise soundstage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePerformance and design should go hand in hand. The Unified Design ensures that every component in the LAiV lineup—be it a DAC, headphone amplifier, DDC, or power amplifier—shares a consistent visual identity. From the sleek brushed finish to the precisely machined corners and matching dimensions, each unit is crafted to stack perfectly, creating a seamless and elegant audio system that looks as refined as it sounds.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eBeyond aesthetics, the unified design philosophy also focuses on practical integration. Thoughtful considerations like aligned display windows, uniform control interfaces, and matching power and I\/O placements make setup intuitive and user-friendly. This approach reduces visual clutter and enhances the feeling of cohesion, allowing users to focus on their music—not on managing cables or mismatched gear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCrafted from a single block of aerospace-grade aluminum using precision CNC machining, the Crescendo CHORUS delivers exceptional durability, a refined finish, and effective heat dissipation, all while exuding premium quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_7 wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eAt the heart of the Crescendo CHORUS lies GaN Systems Technology, leveraging advanced\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003eGallium Nitride (GaN) transistors\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eto deliver exceptional speed, efficiency, and sonic purity. Unlike traditional silicon-based designs, GaN transistors switch faster, with lower losses and significantly reduced distortion.
