Surrender to the VU Meters and Musicality of the Advance Paris X-A160 EVO Power Amplifier: 160Wpc Design Leverages Audiophile Parts and Build to Play with Alluring Warmth, Finesse, and Dynamics
The gorgeous pair of VU meters that dance to the music might be the first thing that tells you the Advance Paris X-A160EVO power amplifier is prepared to step into a role once held by a certain American manufacturer. A slightly warm sonic signature and extremely welcoming price point considering the performance, flexibility, and construction give you more reasons to consider a component from a brand that after three decades of impressing Europe is making waves in North America.
Anchored by a massive power supply and high-current power transistors — NJW0281G and NJW0302G — X-A160EVO offers 160Wpc output and reproduces even demanding dynamic swings with an enviable combination of ease, finesse, and liveliness. A back-panel switch gives you the option of having it provide the first watts in Class A, above which it automatically reverts to Class AB.
Featuring rigid build quality and elegant looks, X-A160EVO has both balanced XLR and traditional RCA inputs, bias adjustment, a dimmer switch, and trigger input. Most of all, it provides intoxicating levels of sound normally only found with gear that costs far more.
