Product Overview & Specifications
The Aavik P-588 is the flagship stereo power amplifier of the x88 series, engineered by Audio Group Denmark to deliver 2 x 300 Watts into 8 Ohms (2 x 600 Watts into 4 Ohms). Designed in collaboration by Gryphon Audio founder Flemming Erik Rasmussen and Michael Børresen, the P-588 combines Pascal Class D technology with proprietary UMAC™ pulse-width modulation for ultra-low noise, high dampening factors, and precise loudspeaker control.
Housed in a low-resonance, non-magnetic composite chassis, the amplifier isolates sensitive audio signals from mechanical vibration and electromagnetic interference. Power is supplied by a sine-wave Resonant Mode Power Supply capable of handling high peak current demands effortlessly. Backed by Audio Group Denmark’s active noise-reduction suite—comprising 108 active Tesla coils, 259 active square PCB Tesla coils, 7 Anti-Aerial Resonance Coils, and 10 analog dither circuits—the P-588 drives distortion down to 0.0028% THD+N for exceptional dynamic authority and musical transparency.
KEY FEATURES & PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGIES
- Pascal Class D with UMAC™ Modulation: High-efficiency power stage utilizing UMAC™ modulation technology to ensure high switching frequency, low high-frequency noise, and precise speaker drive.
- Formidable Power Output: Delivers 2 x 300 Watts RMS into 8 Ohms and 2 x 600 Watts RMS into 4 Ohms with massive peak output reserves.
- Collaborative Design Signature: Designed jointly by Flemming Erik Rasmussen (founder of Gryphon Audio) and Michael Børresen, merging striking industrial aesthetics with advanced acoustic engineering.
- Ansuz Active Noise Reduction Architecture: Outfitted with 108 active Tesla coils and 259 active square PCB Tesla coils to actively suppress power supply noise and voltage fluctuation.
- 7 Anti-Aerial Resonance Coils: Specialized Tesla coils designed to counteract airborne radio frequency (RF) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) inside the chassis.
- 10 Active Analog Dither Circuits: Radar-derived anti-phase dither frequency technology that lowers the noise floor to expose subtle ambient spatial detail.
- Resonant Mode Power Supply: Power-factor-corrected sine-wave power supply providing high current density without introducing square-wave switching noise.
