So, these Audio Research, Model M100 (100 Watt) monoblock amplifiers were designed to provide those seeking the musical satisfaction of state-of-the-art vacuum tube amplification in a format that would not require "tweaking" to obtain the desired results. Its direct and cross-coupled (patented Audio Research Corporation circuitry) amplification employs an automatic "servo" circuit, so that the DC balance (necessary for peak performance) is always automatically maintained, even through vacuum tube changes.

Output tube bias is not only electronically regulated, but is also front panel adjustable-with indicators-thus completely eliminating uncertainty regarding output tube condition adjustment.

Offered in the monoblock format to fully optimize performance, the M100 was designed for state-of-the-art systems where its power will be sufficient. We believe the M100 will sonically satisfy the most demanding music lover. 100 watts minimum continuous at 16 ohms from 20Hz to 20kHz with less than 1% total harmonic distortion (typically below .005% at 1 watt). Approximate actual power available at "clipping" is 115 watts
