Audiolab 7000A Integrated Amplifier

Description

The Audiolab 7000A is a feature rich integrated amplifier that gathers a Class AB power stage, a high performance DAC, a moving magnet phono stage and Bluetooth into a single slim component. The discrete power amplifier produces 70 watts per channel into eight ohms and 110 watts per channel into four ohms, with plenty of current on tap for demanding loudspeakers.

Digital sources are handled by an ESS Sabre converter that supports PCM up to 768 kilohertz, DSD512 and full MQA decoding, accessed through coaxial, optical, USB and HDMI ARC connections. A crisp full color display, three analog line inputs, a phono stage and a dedicated headphone output make the 7000A a genuine all in one hub for both music and television sound.

Flexible operating modes let the 7000A serve as an integrated amplifier, a preamplifier or a power amplifier, so it can grow with a changing system. Refined sound, generous connectivity and elegant styling make it one of the most complete amplifiers in its class.
