Full Details
Boost Your Listening Experiences and Cut Down on the Hassle: 70Wpc Audiolab 7000A Integrated Amplifier Features ESS SABRE ES9038Q2M DAC, MM Phonostage, Robust Power Supply, Abundant Connectivity, and LCD Screen
Power amplifiers with exaggerated power ratings are all too common, but you'll find (and hear) nothing of that sort with the Audiolab 7000A integrated amplifier. Able to deliver a true 70Wpc into eight ohms with a maximum current delivery of 11A amps into challenging loads, it uses CFB (Complementary Feedback) topology in the output stage of the discrete power amp circuits for superior linearity and excellent thermal stability. In the critical power supply, a 250VA toroidal transformer is followed by 4x 15000uF reservoir capacity (60000uF in total) to achieve consistent, resolute control over your speakers.
Designed to fit in tight spaces, the Class AB 7000A comes with everything you would expect in a modern integrated. And much more. A 32-bit ES9038Q2M DAC chipset with HyperStream architecture, Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, post-DAC Class-A linear-phase filter, and a proprietary DC-coupled high-gain electronic amp performs with ultra-low noise and stupendous dynamics. Full internal "three unfold" MQA decoding, support for up to DSD512 and 768kHz PCM, and aptX HD Bluetooth 5.0. Five digital filters. Adjustable input sensitivity. An on-board MM phonostage with precise RIAA equalization. A dedicated headphone amp with current-feedback circuitry, high-gain bandwidth, and high slew rate for detailed, engaging operation with all headphone types.
The Roon-tested 7000A also invites you to go to town with sources. Two RCA inputs cater to CD players and line-level sources. Two coax and S/PDIF inputs take care of digital sources, while a Bluetooth aptX receiver serves wireless audio playback and smart devices. An HDMI ARC input accommodates a TV hook-up. And a USB awaits your PC.
Housed in a sleek chassis, 7000A sports three rotary knobs and a 2.8-inch full-color IPS LCD display that can even be set to show a VU meter. The intuitive GUI makes operation easy, and a supplied remote control lets you take command from your seated position. A three-year manufacturer warranty and our Satisfaction Guarantee give you further assurance this middleweight component punches like a heavyweight.
