Integrated Amplifiers

Bryston proves that integrated amplifiers give no ground to their separate counterparts. The B135 is literally constructed of the BP-17 preamplifier and 2.5B Cubed amplifier into a single chassis offering the best of both products without occupying extra space and costly interconnects. For those who wish to save money and space yet refuse to yield sound quality, the B135 Cubed Integrated Amplifier is a top choice.

The new Copland CTA-407 integrated amplifier, musical beyond its price point.

The Constellation Audio Inspiration INTEGRATED 1.0 is the newest member of Constellation Audio's most affordable Inspiration Series, and joins its preamplifier and amplifier line-mates in delivering the performance that is expected from Constellation Audio at a more affordable price. Delivering plenty of power, 100 wpc into 8 Ohms (and twice that into 4), a full array of balanced and single-ended inputs and outputs, a home theater bypass, and an included headphone amp, the Inspiration INTEGRATED 1.0 provides the easiest entrance into the world of Constellation Audio.

With the addition of several new features and connections, the Argo is almost an entertainment system unto itself. It accommodates four analog audio sources (two XLR, two RCA). Two slots in the back accommodate optional USB digital-to-analog converter and phono preamp modules. Simply connect a pair of speakers and you have a complete music system. Or plug in a set of headphones and enjoy the sound of the Argo on a more intimate scale. All told, the Argo is something quite unprecedented in high-end audio: the incomparable quality of Constellation Audio, with the convenience of an A/V receiver.

Until now, choosing an integrated amplifier always meant choosing compromise. But that's because until now, no integrated amplifier has ever borne the signature of Dan D'Agostino. The new D'Agostino's Momentum integrated amplifier combines the core audio circuits of the Momentum preamplifier and the Momentum stereo amplifier, both of which have been acclaimed by respected reviewers around the world as among the best audio components every created.

After having successfully introduced the award winning NHB series, darTZeel is now very proud to announce the new CTH-8550 full featured integrated amplifier. This new product combines in one casing most of the good things musical lovers found in our flagship series. The CTH-8550 features a newly designed power output stage - one per channel - which includes on board regulated power supplies for a very compact global layout. This new circuit brings outstanding transparency, speed, yet delicacy, giving a maximum listening pleasure. With no less than nine inputs in total, the preamplifier section is dual-mono one circuit per channel - with a minimal footprint which allows for very short signal paths. No doubt that this newcomer is a true darTZeel machine.

DarTZeel introduced their new LHC-208 Integrated Streaming Amplifier that combines a 200wpc integrated amp with a network player. There are 4 analog and 6 digital inputs as well as a headphone amp and integrated TFT touch screen. The LHC-208 can handle up to 24/384 PCM and 2x DSD data.

The V12, the latest brainchild of Tim de Paravicini, is a completely new concept in valve amplifier design. Forget other more conventional designs - the V12 is a totally clean sheet of paper design.

Push-pull stereo integrated amplifier. 50 Watts per channel into 4, 8, or 16 Ohms. Uses 6L6, EL34, or KT66 output tubes. Self-biasing. Six line inputs and one tape output. 50 Watts/Channel

Enhanced triode mode integrated amplifier. Building on the success of the EAR 859 with increase power output and better control of operating conditions irrespective of valve parameters and age.

New technology which does not hurt sonic imaging combines the so-called "wire to wire connections" with PCB techniques to deliver outstanding sound quality. A relay attenuator contains two independent blocks for each particular channel which has improved channel separation. This kind of volume control is being used in competing amplifiers only in a much higher price range. Gain control by 1dB, minimum attenuation of 63dB with a small number of contacts through which the signal passes as possible.

It has been widely thought since the 1980s, that tube technology is a thing of the past, obsolete even. However, at Jadis we are keeping this technology alive because it reproduces the best quality sound. Although tube manufacturers may be few and far between today, those left are still innovating and offering us new tubes.
