Product Description

The Yamaha A-S3200 Integrated Amplifier is a flagship hi-fi component designed for audiophiles seeking the pinnacle of analog sound with vintage-inspired elegance. Featuring a fully balanced, discrete amplifier with a large toroidal transformer, it delivers 100 watts per channel (8 ohms, 20 Hz–20 kHz, 0.07% THD) and is 4-ohm stable, driving demanding speakers with precision and warmth. Its floating and balanced circuitry minimizes noise for an open, natural soundstage. Equipped with a discrete phono stage for MM and MC cartridges, balanced XLR inputs, and pure brass binding posts, it offers premium connectivity. The robust chassis with walnut side panels and large VU meters blends 1970s hi-fi aesthetics with modern engineering, embodying Yamaha’s legacy of audio excellence.

Key Features

Fully Balanced Amplifier: Delivers 100 watts x 2 channels (8 ohms, 20 Hz–20 kHz, 0.07% THD) and 200 watts x 2 channels (4 ohms, 20 Hz–20 kHz, 0.07% THD) with floating and balanced circuitry for exceptional clarity and channel separation.
Large Toroidal Transformer: Provides low-noise, high-efficiency power, enhancing musicality and delivering emotional depth to recordings.
Discrete Phono Preamp: Supports MM (3 mV, 47 kohms) and MC (0.3 mV, 100 ohms) cartridges with a switchable RCA phono input and ground terminal for rich vinyl playback.
Premium Connectivity: Includes 2 balanced XLR inputs with attenuation/phase switches, 5 unbalanced RCA inputs (including Main Direct for power amp use), and 1 RCA output for recording.
High-Quality Binding Posts: Two sets of pure brass binding posts (A/B) ensure secure, high-fidelity speaker connections with easy-to-grip design.
Mechanical Ground Concept: Welded feet, bolted transformer, heat sink, and capacitors, plus thick ground wires, reduce vibrations for superior bass and low impedance.
Large VU Meters: Illuminated level meters with adjustable brightness or off setting provide a nostalgic, real-time visual of output levels.
Classic Controls: Front-panel bass, treble, balance, and loudness controls with a rotary volume knob offer intuitive, vintage-style operation.
Premium Build: Rugged chassis with walnut side panels, silver-plated brass feet, and a thick aluminum front panel ensures durability and aesthetic appeal.
Pure Analog Design: Focuses on analog sources with no digital inputs, delivering uncolored sound for purists seeking pristine audio reproduction.
