A10 Integated amplifier A high-music-quality integrated with tube pre-amplification. THE MUSICAL OBVIOUS With our new A10 CLASSIC amplifier, our aim was to offer an audiophile integrated amplifier inspired by the famous X-i1100, acclaimed for its musicality and liveliness.The A10 is fully future-proofed and easy to use. While 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 on display, thanks to a microprocessor that manages all the functions called up by the encoder: a long or short press accesses the menus.We can scroll through the inputs: 6 analog on RCA with an MM phono with three capacitance settings (100, 200, 320 pf), a balanced line on XLR, 5 digital including 3 optical, an S / PDIF and a USB audio, plus a connector for an aptX XFTB01 or XFTB02 bluetooth receiver (optional).A USB-A socket accepts MP3 audio files from a portable music player or USB memory stick. Original: two HDMI sockets, one for a DVD to benefit from the A10's audio signal quality, and an HDMI ARC socket to connect a CEC protocol display, can be activated in the system configuration menu.Also shown here are system information, speaker selection (A, B or A+B), loudness, bass, treble or bypass settings, and auto sleep (or not) from 5 to 90 min.The trigger In/Out input switches the A10 on and off remotely, or from the A10 to another device connected via the minijacks. The A10 offers the possibility of connecting two subwoofers. A Pre-Out output allows connection of an additional power amp.A fixed Rec Out output is intended for a cassette, MD or other type of recorder.At the rear, the High Bias switch activates Class A polarization on the first watts of the power stage. The A10 is a real winner, and can even hold its own against much more ambitious and expensive models.A great success in prospect! REVIEW & AWARDS Advance Paris A10 Classic Integrated Amplifier Review - Read More "The A10 Classic has a presentation distinctive enough that it can't be seen as a perfect all rounder but it's sufficiently engaging, talented and flexible that many won't care. This is a formidable integrated amp and sensational value for money. " - Ed Selley Review Advance Paris A10 Classic: Glowing, what a fine amplifier! - Read More "What is crystal clear to me is that the Advance Paris A10 Classic simply sounds incredibly good. Whether I use it as a power amplifier behind a receiver or as an integrated amplifier with a digital source, the sound is smooth with lots of detail across the entire frequency range. Is the sound a bit colored and not neutral? Yes, it is, but that is not wrong. Advance Paris has used its own sauce and that sauce tastes like more.
