Take your system to the next level, with the high-end Roksan K3 Power Amp.
The perfect upgrade for your existing K3 amp
If you already own a K3 Amp then this power amp makes the ideal upgrade. There are two ways you can utilise the K3 Power Amp. Either use your existing amp as a pre-amp and run as a pre/power combo. This gives each section its own power supply and casing for enhanced detail and lower distortion. Alternatively, if you have bi-wirable speakers, you can use one amp to run the 'treble' and the other for the 'bass' in bi-amped mode. This greatly improves the speaker control and significantly broadens the sound stage. Buy a second K3 Power Amp and you can even tri-amp; giving astonishing control and resolution.
A flexible power amplifier in any system
As well as being the ideal match for a Roksan system, the K3 Power Amp works well with other brands, too. With a choice of RCA phono or balanced XLR inputs it's compatible with pretty much any pre-amp. It also features RCA phono and XLP outputs, letting you loop the sound through for more complex, multi-amp systems.
Generous power
With a power output of 140W per channel at 8 ohms, the Roksan K3 Power Amp has ample power for most speakers and room sizes. This power brings several advantages: the ability to drive all types of speakers with ease - even hard to drive ones. The K3 combo also has little trouble in filling large rooms with clean, powerful sound and finally, even with average speakers in small to medium-sized rooms the combo gives a taut, dynamic sound with a great sense of realism.
Quality with quantity
Even with its generous power, the K3 Power Amp is far from being just a one-trick pony. Featuring a symmetrical amplifier layout, high quality signal output relays and an improved power supply layout, the K3 also excels in terms of accuracy, detail and low noise. Whatever the type of music, the sound benefits from absolute clarity, broad sound staging and precise resolution.
Superior build quality
A great step up in terms of both style and quality, the Roksan K3 Power Amp is a much more sophisticated amp. Using a substantial and rigid new chassis, the K3 Power Amp weighs in at a hefty 14kg. It's this mass that provides excellent damping against mechanical vibration, so reducing the chances of distortion still further. Roksan has also streamlined the design, giving the K3 Power Amp a smarter appearance over the older models.
Boost your system to another league, with the Roksan K3 Power Amp.

Well Built Power Amp
I have a K3 Integrated amp which I am happy with, but with the offer of £499 for the K3 power amp, I thought it was worth a punt.
We set the power amp up initially as a pre/power with our pmc fb1i floorstanding speakers using just one set of speaker cables from the power amp. That sounded fine.
We then set the system up with the K3 int. amplifier connected to the tweeters and the K3 power amp driving the woofers (remember to take out the jump lead cables on the speaker connections!)
Bi-amped & bi-wired suits the system nicely.
The K3 power amplifier gets a little warm, so requires plenty of space.
We have had no issues with the K3 power amplifier, if unused it goes into standby after a few minutes , and comes out of standby when the music starts.
The improvement in the sound quality is subtle as the K3 integrated amplifier already has a great sound and plenty of grunt. A wider soundstage, increased definition and a little more refinement.
Definitely worth £500!
Richer Sounds allowed us to audition the unit at home, this is essential when demoing new gear for us. Thank you Richer Sounds and the guys at the Nottingham branch.

Roksan K3 Power Amp
The Roksan K3 power amplifier is a perfect match for the K3 intergrated amplifier to bi-amp speakers and Monitor Audio gives a 5 year warranty with the K3 line which I used on the K3 intergrated just under the 5 year period and they totally recapped and replaced other parts so you don't get any problems with repairs which is a big plus this day and age. The power amp sounds the same as the K3 intergrated and has enough power to drive most speakers and can be used as a stand alone power amplifier for other uses (Home Cinema, DJ / Studio or add to a pre amp) At the monent Richersounds are selling them for £499 and at that price you won't find a better new power amplifier.

Brought to replace the previous version which burnt out. It does sound good, just hope it doesn't do the same.

Nice sounding amp with problems
Bought this amp in sept and had problems with it going into protection mode intermittently, I know the rudaments of electricity so ruled out incorrect wiring etc and confirmed it by the amp doing the same whilst nothing was connected, richer sounds as usual were very good and swapped it but the same happend only this time I was using it at a second address with my father's ancillaries also doing the same when not wired up at all.
I took it back but refused a third as I suspected a batch fault so a lovely guy fully refunded me on which I bought my original choice the acram sa30 of which there hasn't been any issues.
The roskan was without Bluetooth which I accepted as it reflected the price but it also hasn't got a standbye mode ether which isn't documented and largely unknown.
ROSKAN via the monitor audio group confirmed this via phone which in turn is online, standby used more than the allowed wph so roskan took it out.
Non of that bothered me either as the brief time it did work combined with demo I had it sounded very nice indeed, which ment I was disappointed I never got a good one.
I've since gotten the older version from Peter Tyson with both Bluetooth although I bypass it with a ifizen streamer which sounds better and standby for the living room and it works flawlessly, I prefer the acrams warm sound and it's exhaustive connectivity with its very good saber chip so a separate streamer isn't needed but they are different types of sound rather than one being a better sounding amp.
I will say the acram although rated at 120watts per channel is much more powerful as I have a hard to drive pair of vintage speakers.
ROSKAN should of left the k3 alone, a chip shortage isn't a good enough excuse for an amp north of 1000 £, nor is removing standby mode acceptable.
Richer sounds still remains one of my preferred hifi dealers and I won't hesitate to purchase from them again.
