Aurender AP20
A reference-grade Integrated Amp, with the heart of an Aurender
$22,000 USD Retail
We know...there are a lot of integrated amp solutions out there. But, none of them incorporates an Aurender digital frontend with our hallmark caching playback engine and the elegant user experience that Aurender owners know and love.
With Aurender's typically outstanding level of craftsmanship, and an absolute refusal to compromise in the DAC, preamp, and amp section, we have something truly special here. The specs are impressive, sure, but wait until you hear what AP20 can do with your favorite speakers...
