Audio Analogue AAcento 100W Zero Feedback Integrated Amplifier

AAcento Integrated Amplifier Delivers Pristine Audio Quality in a Versatile Package

The AAcento Integrated Amplifier from Audio Analogue’s PureAA line is crafted to deliver a reference-quality listening experience, combining minimalistic Italian design with top-tier sound precision. Designed in collaboration with Airtech Laboratories, the AAcento integrates high-end technology and flexibility into a single unit, capturing the brand's commitment to impeccable sonic fidelity without compromise. This amplifier's meticulous engineering features uncompromising solutions—offering a rich set of functions and connectivity options rarely found in this class.

High-Powered, Pure Sound Amplification for Audiophiles

The AAcento Integrated Amplifier is equipped with a robust 480W toroidal transformer, custom-engineered to ensure high-current delivery and stability across diverse audio loads. Its zero global feedback design in both the preamp and power stages eliminates phase shifts and ensures transparency, delivering clear and natural audio across all frequencies. Whether driving a high-impedance headphone or power-hungry speakers, the AAcento produces a consistent 100W per channel on 8-ohm loads, effortlessly rising to 200W on 4-ohm and 300W on 2-ohm loads.

This attention to power management ensures AAcento's signal remains uncompromised under various load conditions, giving audiophiles a rich, distortion-free soundstage with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of up to 100dB.

Precision Volume and Input Control with Digital Innovation

AAcento’s digital volume control, designed without op amps, utilises relay-based input selection for optimal precision and minimal non-linearities. This setup reduces thermal distortion, providing pure sound even at low volumes. With proprietary microcontroller-driven controls and selectable channel balancing, listeners have detailed control over their sound experience. The amplifier offers four different volume scales, catering to individual listening preferences, making it easy to switch between sources or adjust for room dynamics.

Versatile Connectivity and Home Theatre Compatibility

For maximum functionality, the AAcento includes three RCA inputs, an XLR input for balanced connections, and a dedicated phono stage compatible with both MM and MC cartridges. With a Direct Mode, the amplifier doubles as a power amp within a home theatre setup, integrating seamlessly with existing audio components. Additionally, it features both pre-out and mono-out options, ideal for those looking to expand their audio system with additional power amplifiers or subwoofers.

Premium Class A Headphone Amplification

The AAcento is also equipped with an onboard pure Class A headphone amplifier that supports a range of impedance levels—delivering up to 1W at 32Ω and 120mW at 300Ω. This internal headphone stage brings out the finest details of every track, making it a highly versatile choice for headphone enthusiasts who demand studio-quality sound. The pure Class A configuration ensures a clean, warm output that maintains sonic clarity, creating an immersive listening experience tailored for high-fidelity headphones.

Elegant Craftsmanship and User-Friendly Design

This amplifier’s design mirrors the minimalist sophistication of classic Italian aesthetics. Available in natural aluminium or satin black, the AAcento’s chassis not only has a refined look but also offers superior durability. Its aluminium remote control, machined from a single block, allows users intuitive control over all amplifier functions from a distance. At just under 10cm in height and with a substantial weight of 14kg, the AAcento is designed to be a central piece of any high-end audio setup.

With thoughtful construction, professional-grade components, and versatility in functionality, the AAcento Integrated Amplifier redefines what's possible in a single, high-performance unit for discerning audio enthusiasts.
