Teac AX-505

CAREFULLY-SELECTED PARTS, EXCLUSIVELY DESIGNED FOR HI-FI APPLICATIONS: From MUSE op-amps in the analog section - which fundamentally determines the amplifier’s sound quality - to ladder-resistor type volume controls, our engineers have carefully chosen all key components from ‘made for hi-fi’ ranges, wherever possible. PASSIVE-COOLING DESIGN FOR S... moreILENT OPERATION: It makes no sense for an amplifier to deliver excellent sound to loudspeakers while generating spurious operating noise from a cooling fan. That is why our engineers paid special attention to the AX-505’s circuit and cabinet design, creating a parts layout that would allow for the natural removal of heat, so achieving a compact but powerful amplifier that doesn’t require a cooling fan. FULL-METAL BODY FOR RIGIDITY, STABILITY, AND ELEGANCE: It’s not just the front panel that’s firmly attached to the robust steel inner chassis. the top and side panels are affixed to it, too. This high standard of construction helps reduce mechanical vibration via heavy parts. A compact design with an A4-sized footprint, the AX-505 fits comfortably into even the smallest of modern spaces. USER-FRIENDLY INTERFACE FOR EASE OF USE: In order to provide a more tactile response, the AX-505 employs a volume control with a machined aluminum knob for precise volume control, while a classic toggle is used to switch the amplifier on and off. The remote control, topped with a luxurious aluminum cover, allows you to adjust the volume in 0.5dB steps at moderate volumes.
