A10 APEX — The Natural Evolution of the A10 Classic
A new version of the legendary A10 Classic, enriched with advanced features, elegant high-performance accessories and even better sound quality. All at the service of a single requirement: high-fidelity. The A10 APEX is a hybrid integrated amplifier, combining the warmth of tubes for preamplification and the power of transistors for amplification. This subtle marriage offers great musicality, exceptional dynamics and faithful, lively sound reproduction.
🎵 The Sound Magic of Audio Tubes
Music lovers will appreciate the warmth and richness of sound offered by these tubes, often compared to the timeless smoothness of vinyl. Thanks to its hybrid technology combining tubes and transistors, the A10 APEX transforms every listening experience into an immersive one, where each instrument stands out with precision and the subtlest nuances of the music come to life.
ECC81 / 12AT7 tubes deliver exceptional musicality with the power and control of Class A/B transistor amplification.
⚡ Powerful Hybrid Architecture
Delivering 130W per channel at 8Ω (198W at 4Ω), the A10 APEX combines audio tubes for preamplification with transistors for amplification. This sophisticated design provides exceptional dynamics and faithful sound reproduction with remarkable frequency response of 20Hz to 80kHz.
High-Bias Class A/B amplification with toroidal transformer ensures clean, powerful performance with minimal distortion (0.045% THD+N at 90W).
📀 Vinyl Ready with RIAA Phono Stage
The A10 APEX is compatible with vinyl turntables with MM cartridges (the most classic). It incorporates an RIAA phono preamplifier, so you can enjoy the full musicality of your vinyl records with proper equalization and gain.
Built-in phono stage eliminates the need for external preamps—simply connect your turntable and enjoy.
🌊 Dual Subwoofer Outputs
Correctly calibrated, subwoofers enrich the bass register considerably, even in a demanding Hi-Fi configuration. The A10 APEX features two subwoofer outputs that can be set in mono or stereo mode, to optimize bass coherence and spatialization for your system.
Flexible bass management allows you to tailor low-frequency performance to your room and preferences.
📺 HDMI eARC for TV Integration
Thanks to its HDMI eARC input, the A10 APEX connects directly to your TV for easy operation. The CEC functions ensure synchronization: when you switch on the TV, the amplifier also switches on, and volume control is done directly from the TV remote control.
Transform your TV audio into a true Hi-Fi experience with seamless integration and control.
🎬 Home Theater Integration
Are you passionate about cinema, but don't want to give up the precision of Hi-Fi listening? Thanks to its AMP-IN inputs, the A10 APEX can be easily integrated into a home-cinema setup. It then provides amplification for your main left and right speakers, giving them pure Hi-Fi sound quality.
Far superior to traditional AV amplifiers for your front channels—enjoy movies with audiophile-grade sound.
📡 A-BTC Bluetooth Compatibility
The optional A-BTC dongle offers full Bluetooth connectivity: simply connect your phone, tablet or computer to the A10 APEX. It also makes Bluetooth headset connection possible, ideal for listening to your tunes or watching a movie in silence, without compromising on sound quality.
High-quality wireless streaming and private listening—all from one elegant accessory (sold separately).
