- Stabilized power supplies
All stages except the KT-88 stage are powered by fully stabilized
power supplies. The A-100 reproduces an exceptionally deep
and finely detailed sound stage thanks to this innovative power
supply design.
-
DC powered tube heater
All tubes except the KT-88 are DC heated. Hum noise is greatly
reduced by this heater design.
-
Mechanical chassis construction
Power supply and output transformer are held by an extremely
rigid H structure and circuit components reside in a block
configuration surrounding this mainframe design. The massive
chassis construction keeps the unit from unwanted vibration and
induced noise between circuit components.
- Input selector / volume attenuator
The A-100 is designed for pure power amplification but it also
works as an integrated amplifier by selection from an operating
switch on the rear panel. This switch activates an input selector
(RCA x3 / XLR x1), and also a very high quality volume
attenuator.
- Two bias modes
The A-100 has two bias modes (A or B), selectable from a back
panel switch. B mode is for a normal setting, and A mode (slightly
reduced bias voltage), is for slightly finer sound depending on
other component within the system.
- Remote controller
A remote control with illuminated keys for integrated amplifier
operation is included.
- High grade parts selection
RCA input terminals are highly reliable
WBT-0201. The speaker terminals are
WBT-0710Cu, the latest version of
WBT terminals, incorporating pure
copper conductor material for high
signal purity and ultra-low terminal
resistance. Signal loss is kept to a
minimum with the use of these high
grade audiophile connections.
