Rated Output....................................................................................................

1.5VRMS

The SM6 has been designed to drive any amplifier to it’s full potential. Even with an input level from a source component with a low level output, the SM6 has enough gain to provide the amplifier with an optimum signal, utilising the full dynamic range and signal to noise specifications of the amplifier.

Maximum Output............................................................................................

3.0VRMS

The maximum output level of the SM6 has been designed to provide substantial headroom allowing greater dynamics without clipping, handling any musical transients with finesse and ease.

Total Harmonic Distortion (THD+N) .............................

<0.004%, 20Hz to 20kHz

Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise is the percentage of output signal which is made up of frequencies added due to harmonics of the fundamental frequency and noise. By using a truly balanced circuit topology throughout the SM6 and maintaining Class A operation at all stages, Perreaux engineers have kept this figure to a minimum.
