PA1

Hifi Products / Amplifiers / PA1


The PA1 mono-block sets a new standard on class AB power amplifier design. It minimizes dynamic signal distortions that are overlooked by many but have great impact on sound quality. This amplifier offers both the musicality experienced with the best tube based designs and the rock-solid performance achieved with the best solid-state designs.

“Absolute pristine audio playback with an extreme authority in the bass, true to life mids and clean transient highs.“

Our engineers took an ingenious amplifier concept to the next level by means of a meticulously optimized design, taking full advantage of modern day technologies. Notwithstanding its relatively compact shape, the PA1 delivers more than 200W into 4 Ω, and is capable of driving even the most demanding loudspeakers with ease. For a deep dive into the technical backgrounds of the PA1, please read the “Under the hood” blog.

The PA1 opens doors to new sound territory with authority and grace. Experience how recordings of all kinds come to life like never before.

Industrial designer Michiel Uylings of MU1 and PW1 fame surpassed himself by drawing a cabinet that has a similar ‘solid elegancy’ as the PA1’s sound quality.

The PA1 can accommodate preamplifiers with low and high gain. An optional auto on/off function turns the PA1 into standby after 40 minutes of silence.
