Classic Integrated Amplifier

Stereo integrated amplifier

Everything you need for listening to music, nothing else

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is a stereo integrated amplifier designed to form the heart of a Hi-Fi system. Just add a source and a pair of speakers.

It accepts four high-level sources, such as DAC, CD player, tuner, recorder and TV, including one with a balanced connection, plus a turntable. The input for the turntable accepts both MM and MC cartridges and, if it is not used, it can be transformed into another high-level input simply by operating a switch on the rear panel.

It drives a pair of speakers and stereo headphones. In addition, it is equipped with a preamplified output to drive an active subwoofer, or for a more powerful power amplifier than the internal one, or even to associate a second amplifier to the internal amplifier to implement passive bi-amplification of the speakers.

It is equipped with an infrared remote control and a WiFi interface through which it can be controlled from any smartphone thanks to the free app provided by M2Tech on the Apple Store and Google Play.

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is designed for music. Its power circuit is structured in such a way as to accommodate the dynamic behavior of the musical program, consisting of a succession of short impulsive peaks interspersed with longer interludes at a medium-low level. Think of drums or singing. For this reason, compared to a continuous power output of 60Wrms per channel into 8 Ohm and 100Wrms per channel into 4 Ohm, the Classic Integrated Amplifier is able to provide a dynamic power of 155Wrms per channel into 8 Ohm and up to 240Wrms per channel into  4 Ohms! Simply put, the Classic Integrated Amplifier costs, consumes and heats like a 50W amplifier but sounds like a 150W one. Not bad, right?

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is assembled with great care by hand in Italy, because at M2Tech we strongly believe in the added value of expert craftsmanship that gives quality to the product and dignity to the worker. It is made using only through-hole mounting components. They offer a greater variety of choices than surface mount components. This allowed us to choose the most suitable components in the design phase based on sound and power handling, because we wanted to create a good-sounding and long-lasting product: an investment for life.

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is an ethical product and respects the environment. The mechanical components are made in Italy respecting European environmental regulations. Its power supply allows optimal use of the energy stored in it, its standby circuit consumes just over a tenth of a Watt. In compliance with the repairability index regulation recently issued by the European Union, the Classic Integrated Amplifier only uses components that are easily available and replaceable in the unlikely event of a fault, to guarantee prolonged use over time.
