Eleven Audio A390 – compact integrated amp with VCIA technology
17.12.2024 07:16 | ~1 minute read
Eleven Audio (Taiwan, Taipei), has introduced the compact integrated amplifier A390, equipped with the proprietary technology of isolated voltage and current amplification (VCIA). This approach is designed to minimize distortion and ensuring accurate sound of even the most complex load.
Integrated amplifier Eleven Audio A390 is equipped with an electronic volume control based on a R2R resistive matrix. At the same time, it is possible to adjust the sensitivity of each input, allowing you to smoothly switch between different audio sources. The amplifier is based on a linear power supply with a powerful toroidal transformer.
The commutation of the integrated amplifier Eleven Audio A390 includes only analog inputs - balanced on XLR connectors and two unbalanced on RCA. Despite its compact size, the amplifier is versatile enough to work even with large acoustic systems, adhering to the "first watt" principle. The Eleven Audio A390 is capable of delivering 2 x 39 W with a load nominal impedance of 8 Ohms. The frequency range is extremely wide and extends from 1 Hz to 110 kHz (at the -1 dB level). The signal-to-noise ratio is 119 dB, and the slew rate is 26 V/μs.
The Eleven Audio A390 integrated amplifier is presented now at a recommended retail price of $ 1,699.

Børresen has announced significant changes to its range of loudspeakers - the new Børresen T series of loudspeakers, consisting of three models of different sizes (T1, T3 and T5) and three upgraded SSE (Silver Supreme Edition) versions, will replace the Børresen 0 series in the company's product range.
Accuphase A-48S – Current Feedback Topology Amplifier
The current feedback amplification topology and powerful power supply of the new Accuphase A-48S amplifier provides a large reserve and stable output in pure Class A. For a load with an impedance of 8 ohms, 50 watts are available, and halving the load impedance doubles the output power. With a short-term drop in load impedance to 1 ohm, the amplifier is capable of delivering a power of 400 watts.
