PEACHTREE AUDIO - NOVA INTEGRATED HYBRID AMPLIFIER
The New Peachtree NOVA Will Blow You Away! This is the Perfect Computer Audio Integrated Amp!
All the Digital Inputs You Need, A Killer DAC Built-In, a Tube Preamp Section for Incredible Warmth, an Amazing On Board Headphone Amp, 80 watts/channel... You Must Hear This for Yourself!
The latest addition to the Peachtree family, the NOVA is an audiophile-grade hybrid tube integrated amplifier with impressive digital capabilities. Connect your favorite sources, with 3 analog inputs, 4 digital inputs and 1 USB input offering excellent system flexibility. The powerful 80 Watts-Per-Channel Amplifier will drive most speakers with ease and the NOVA even includes a headphone amp and a preamp output, so a subwoofer or more powerful amplifier can be added at any time.
Nova's preamp section uses a 6922 tube with a Class A output stage, which maintains a high level of detail and also provides a sonically richer platform to tame the harshness that plagues most compressed digital music.
Speaking of digital music, the Nova features a fairly unique feature, the ESS 9006 Sabre DAC, a high-resolution 24bit/192k up-sampling converter that reclocks the incoming digital signal removing harmful jitter before passing the signal to the 24/192 upsampler with its 122dB S/N ratio! Eleven regulated power supplies for the DAC and digital section transformer-couple each digital input stage eliminating noise associated with ground problems and switching power supplies.
The USB section is a bit different than most implementations found on the market; the Nova's USB connection is isolated from the computer's power supply and therefore the noise generated by that system. This provides a cleaner, quieter signal to the DACs offering greater resolution and more music!
The Nova's powerful 80 watt-per-channel amplifier is backed up by an enormous toroidal power supply, offering gobs of power on demand and controlling most speakers with ease.
Headphone users, the Nova has a “Class-A” tube headphone amp inside for your private listening enjoyment. Unlike the op-amps used in many integrated amps, this one's the real deal! When in use, the headphone amp mutes the main amplifier output.
