- 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.
