AUDIOLAB 6000A PLAY AMPLIFIER
Integrated amplifiers
cleverly combine both pre and power amplification stages. Responsible for attenuating
speaker volume and input selection control from varying sources (CD players,
network streamers, Blu Ray, etc), integrated amplifiers are a popular all-in-on
choice for all listeners. Understanding that modern life is already
complicated, Audiolab combined two highly acclaimed components – its 6000A
integrated amplifier & 6000N Play network streamer – to deliver a single,
simple solution. Now, simplicity is the ultimate display of your
sophistication.
6000A Play’s 2 x 50W into
8ohms of class A/B power puts the loud in loudspeakers. But more than power,
its analogue/digital circuitry – inherited from the award-winning 6000A –
ensures you well defined bass, expressive mid range and sweet, subtle treble.
Want to tune out the
world? 6000A Play incorporates a dedicated headphone amp with current-feedback
circuitry. It’s gain bandwidth and high slew rate ensure a dynamic, detailed
and engaging audio experience to help you be alone with your music.
6000A Play not only
supports MP3, MP4A, AAC, FLAC, WAV & AIFF, its inbuilt DTS Play-Fi also
offers CD-quality streaming (16-bit/48kHz). Plus, engage Critical Listening
Mode and enjoy high resolution audio files up to 24-bit/192kHz.
Any serious amplifier
worth its salt comes with a high-quality, low-noise turntable input. That’s why
6000A Play is fitted with a JFET-based moving magnet phono stage. It’s sound
quality to inspire your quick dash back to the record store.
Your love of music is a
lifetime affair. That’s why 6000A Play offers three future-proof operational
modes, making it an Integrated, Pre or Power amplifier. So as your system
demands grow, 6000A Play grows with you.
6000A Play becomes the
heart of an entire wireless home audio ecosystem thanks to DTS Play-Fi. With
Play-Fi compatible smart speakers, you can build wireless music zones
throughout your home, getting the most from that family streaming package.
With DTS Play-FI, access
all your favourite streaming services like Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, Amazon Music
& more. Plus, Play-Fi’s easy-to-use app for both iOS and Android smart
devices gives you palm-sized control over your entire music catalogue.
Wifi not working? Thanks
to 6000A Play’s inbuilt aptX Bluetooth, you can still enjoy wireless
connectivity to music on your smart devices in true CD quality. Now you’re
wired for sound even when the Wifi’s down.
Want versatility? With
two Optical and Coaxial inputs a piece, Ethernet, Phono for turntable, and three
individual Analogue inputs, 6000A Play promises a wealth of entertainment
options – no matter where the mood takes you.
