Yamaha AS-1200 Integrated Amplifier

We like the pure analog design of the Yamaha AS-S1200 Bravo Yamaha! for not resorting to digital like so many peers. It offers all the quality fastidious Audiophiles want; beautiful sound quality, transparent and sweet - with low distortion achieved with high grade components. Superbly built for years of enjoyment. 

Yamaha is serious about their HiFi amplifiers.

Yamaha’s amplifier design technology called ToP-ART features an I/O (input to output) Direct Symmetrical Design, with left and right channels organised in a straight, symmetrical layout for highest signal purity.

In addition, the ART (Anti-Resonance and Tough) Base bottom chassis and a solid centre bar provide high-rigidity support and vibration damping. These Yamaha design innovations contribute to this amplifiers’ musicality.

High Quality Parts for Outstanding Audio Performance

Custom-made power transformer, custom-made block capacitors, two direct signal path speaker relays, one-point grounding system, aluminium-extruded heat sinks and other top-quality parts effortlessly handle demanding audio signal conditions. 

Usually reserved for flagship Hi-Fi components, the A-S1200 benefits from the current capability and low noise of a toroidal transformer.
