AUDIOLAB 6000A PLAY. Integrated 2x75W amplifier
The latest addition to Audiolab's renowned 6000 Series, the 6000A Play combines the celebrated 6000A stereophonic integrated amplifier with DAC and 6000N wireless audio streamer to provide an extraordinarily flexible solution for lovers of capitalized sound. To do this, it incorporates the DTS Play-Fi platform in order to facilitate high resolution wireless audio streaming (up to 24 bits / 96 kHz and therefore compatible with online music services such as TIDAL or Qobuz) and play music from any source - smartphones, tablets, personal computers or even NAS drives - connected to a home wireless network. It is the engineering of the 6000A Play that truly makes the difference as a consequence of the extreme care put into the design and execution of both the analog and digital sections, both identical to those of the 6000A integrated amplifier. Thus, the DAC functionality is based on one of ESS Technology's sophisticated ES9018 Sabre32 Reference D / A conversion “chips” equipped with the exclusive 32-bit HyperStream architecture and the American firm's Time Domain Jitter Eliminator scheme to minimize noise. background and maximize dynamic range. Even more careful is the analog circuitry, configured in Class AB with Complementary Feedback (CFB) topology to guarantee superior linearity and excellent thermal stability. A generous power supply ensures firm control of the associated speakers while maintaining excellent dynamic range. The same care is found in the preamplification section, designed to preserve the integrity of the musical signal and executed with high precision components, taking special care with their physical arrangement to avoid potential interference. The result is the quintessential English sound that Audiolab represents, updated to take full advantage of the latest generation digital sources both with and without physical support.
