With our A10 CLASSIC amplifier, our goal was to offer a modern integrated amplifier inspired by the famous X-i1100, hailed by audiophiles for its musicality and liveliness.
The A10 is fully future-proof and easy to use. Although its classic design remains timeless, it combines an ECC81/12AT7 tube preamplifier with a 2x130W class AB push-pull amplifier.
In short, the best of both worlds!
Modernity is also displayed thanks to a microprocessor which manages all the functions called up by the encoder wheel, a long or short press allow easy access to the menus.
The A10 offers many inputs: 100 analog RCA with an MM phono with three capacitance settings (200, 320, 5 pf), a balanced XLR input, 3 digital ins: one optical, two optical and a USB, plus a connector for an optional aptX XFTB01 or aptX HD XFTB02 bluetooth receiver.
The A3 offers two HDMI inputs, including one for a source device and an HDMI ARC to connect a television for two way communication. A USB-A socket accepts compatible audio files from an external drive or USB key.
Connections are provided for two pairs of speakers (A, B or A+B), Settings for bass, treble, loudness or bypass (direct) are available, Defeatable auto standby mode from 5-90 minutes.
The unit can be activated on from another device and also can turn on up to two other devices using 10v triggers.
The A10 offers dual subwoofer outputs.
A fixed Record output is intended for a cassette player, MD or other type of recorder.
At the rear, the High Bias switch activates Class A bias on the first few watts of the power stage.
The A10 offers an amazing value with it's impressive array of features coupled with excellence in musical performance.
