Introduction
Thank you for selecting the MOON MC-8 Multi-
Channel power amplifier as a part of your hi-fi
reproduction system. This power amplifier has been
designed to offer state-of-the-art high-end
performance in an elegant package, while retaining
all the sonic hallmarks on which Simaudio has made
its reputation. We have spared no effort to ensure
that it is the finest multi-channel amplifiers available.
We have been building high-performance audio
equipment for over 30 years, and the know-how
gained through our cumulative experience is an
important reason why MOON amplifiers are so
musically satisfying.
Your new amplifier is configured for two (2) through
seven (7) channels depending on the choice you
made at the time of purchase. The number of
channels can easily be changed “in the field” at any
time. Please contact your authorized MOON dealer
or distributor for further details. The performance of
your MC-8 will continue to improve during the first
300 hours of listening. This is the result of a “break-
in” period required for the numerous high quality
electronic parts used throughout this amplifier.
Before setting up your new MOON MC-8, we
encourage you to please read this manual
thoroughly to properly acquaint yourself with its
features. We hope you enjoy listening to the
MOON MC-8 Mult-channel power amplifier as much
as the pride we have taken in creating this fine
audio product. We understand the power and
emotion of music and build our products with the
goal of faithfully capturing these elusive qualities.

Your MOON MC-8 Multi-Channel Amplifier incorporates many significant design features to achieve its “world
class” level of performance. This is an abbreviated list of the more important features:
An oversized power supply employing a custom
proprietary toroidal transformer design with lower
magnetic, electrical and thermal loss, yielding an improved
power transfer and lower regulation factor, resulting in
increased current speed and better dynamics.
Modular circuit design using edge connectors for
each channel’s circuitry, allowing for upgrades “in the
field”.
Fully balanced differential circuitry up to the output
stage.
Class A output to 5 watts for greater efficiency.
Extremely fast circuitry yielding real-time amplification.
Virtually non-existent transient intermodulation (TIM)
distortion.
Proprietary MOON Bipolar Output transistors with
unprecedented gain linearity resulting in improved
bass
response and even more accurate sonic
reproduction
A high damping factor which yields superior musical
dynamics, improved signal speed and refined timbre
accuracy.
Extremely rigid chassis construction to minimize the
effects of external vibrations.
Accurate matching of the very finest high quality
electronic components in a symmetrical circuit design.
A very short signal path for a faster transient response.
Pure copper circuit board tracings with extremely low
impedance characteristics.
A 12 Volt trigger input for remote operations.
Designed to be powered up at all times for optimal
performance.
