Mark Levinson ML-3 (original) (raw)

The Mark Levinson ML-3 was a 200 watt per channel dual monaural Class AB2 power amplifier that used toroidal transformers. Produced between 1979 and 1987, the ML-3 consisted of two electrically separate amplifiers in one chassis, hence the name "Dual Monaural". It also featured discrete circuit construction; no integrated circuits were incorporated to keep the signal pure. The design was by Thomas P. Colangelo. The ML-3 constituted the archetype of an American highend, highpower amplifier.
