AT2000 / AT2000plus Integrated Amp
|
The AT2000 integrated amplifier combines a class A biased pre‐amplifier stage and valve‐assisted power amplifier electronics in a compact one‐box package using Never Connected™ power supplies for all low‐power circuits, offering stunning musicality at its price point. There is plenty of user flexibility and real audiophile sound. The quality electronics are housed in distinctively designed aluminium casework with a 6mm thick front fascia and anodised finishes. The AT2000plus builds on the strengths of the AT2000. The plus version includes super pure single crystal copper internal cabling and upgraded (Auricap) capacitors in critical positions. This upgrade offers better focus, greater transparency, tighter bass and lower noise floor without losing the AT2000's natural tonality and graceful musicality. The AT2000plus is supplied with a manufacturers certificate showing it to be an authorised Astin Trew upgrade. The small additional cost makes it a winning value‐for‐money upgrade. - HiFi Choice Review, May 2010 - Music eMotion Review, Mar 2010 - TNT Audio Review, Oct 2009 - 6 Moon Review - TechRadar Review - Audio, FairAudio,Hifi & Record Reviews (In German) - Read more Reviews @ Astin Trew The AT8000 Moving Coil / Moving Magnet phono‐pre‐amplifier has been designed for highest quality analogue music reproduction.
