The A10 Classic is an integrated amplifier inspired by the X-i1100, combining an ECC81/12AT7 tube preamplifier with a 130 watt per channel Class AB push-pull output stage, and a High Bias switch that runs the first watts in Class A. Six analog RCA inputs include an MM phono stage with three capacitance settings, joined by a balanced XLR line input and five digital inputs feeding an ESS 9018 DAC, plus two HDMI sockets — one of them ARC for a television. Two subwoofer outputs, a Pre-Out for an additional power amplifier, A/B speaker switching, and VU-meters complete a deliberately traditional package.
