Its chassis is machined from a single block of aluminum, and the audio circuitry is mounted directly into one-piece cast aluminum heat sinks, machined to within a thousandth of an inch, so the structure itself damps vibration and carries heat away passively. The output stage is rated at 8 kW of transistor capacity for 888 watts of delivered power, fed by oversized transformers and more than 350,000 µF of capacitance; the MDCA circuit corrects distortion without a global feedback loop. Rhodium-plated speaker terminals, balanced and single-ended inputs and switchable DC or AC coupling complete it. Each 888 is hand-assembled and tested in Quebec.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 20px\"\u003eThe 888 is for the largest rooms and the most demanding loudspeakers, where a pair will drive any load without strain. MOON's 850P preamplifier or 891 network player \/ preamplifier is the natural partner. Because of its weight and the installation involved, we deliver and set up every 888 ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px\"\u003eKey technologies\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 20px;padding-left:18px\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 5px\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMDCA, no global feedback.\u003c\/strong\u003e MOON Distortion-Cancelling Amplifier topology for dynamic coherence and phase accuracy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 5px\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMonolithic cast heat sinks.\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-piece cast aluminum heat sinks with the audio circuitry integrated into them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 5px\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid-block chassis.\u003c\/strong\u003e Machined from one piece of aluminum for rigidity, passive cooling and thermal isolation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin:0 0 5px\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8 kW output capacity.\u003c\/strong\u003e Output transistors rated far beyond the delivered power, with 350,000 µF of storage and rhodium-plated terminals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px\"\u003eFinishes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style:none;margin:0 0 6px;padding:0\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:10px;margin:0 0 6px\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"flex:0 0 18px;width:18px;height:18px;border-radius:50%;background:#1d1d1f;border:1px solid #d8d5ce\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlack\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color:#55524c\"\u003eblack anodized aluminum\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:10px;margin:0 0 6px\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"flex:0 0 18px;width:18px;height:18px;border-radius:50%;background:#c3c4c6;border:1px solid #d8d5ce\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilver\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color:#55524c\"\u003esilver anodized aluminum\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:10px;margin:0 0 6px\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"flex:0 0 18px;width:18px;height:18px;border-radius:50%;background:linear-gradient(90deg,#1d1d1f 50%,#c3c4c6 50%);border:1px solid #d8d5ce\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2-Tone\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color:#55524c\"\u003eblack chassis with silver cheeks\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 20px;font-size:13.5px;color:#55524c\"\u003eBlack, Silver and 2-Tone are MOON's standard finishes and carry the same price.
