ADVANCE PARIS A12 APEX Hybrid class A B integrated amplifier
Advance Paris has designed the A12 APEX with a clear and uncompromising goal everything in the service of high fidelity.
This hybrid integrated amplifier represents the highest expression of the APEX philosophy combining the musicality and harmonic richness of valves in the preamplification stage with the authority control and power of a high performance transistor output stage.
The result is faithful dynamic and deeply engaging sound reproduction capable of filling any room with a wide precise and stable soundstage.
Thanks to its dual mono design with two independent toroidal transformers the A12 APEX guarantees exemplary channel separation generous current delivery and a stereo image with great depth.
This architecture provides absolute control over the musical message even with demanding loudspeakers while maintaining a constant sense of ease naturalness and effortlessness.
The valve preamplifier section brings the organic enveloping character so cherished by lovers of analogue sound.
Textures are rich timbres are natural and the most subtle nuances emerge clearly while the high bias class A B amplification ensures impact dynamics and stability at any listening level.
Each recording is presented with tonal coherence and fast controlled transient response.
Designed for demanding audiophiles and modern systems the A12 APEX offers comprehensive connectivity.
Its HDMI eARC input allows direct and simple integration with a television providing automatic synchronisation via CEC for power on and volume control from a single remote.
In this way the amplifier becomes the heart of both a high level Hi Fi system and a premium audiovisual setup.
Vinyl playback is another of its key strengths.
The A12 APEX includes a high grade RIAA phono stage compatible with both MM and MC cartridges ensuring precise equalisation and balanced reproduction that respects the full harmonic and dynamic richness of analogue recordings.
It is a complete solution for those who want to extract the maximum potential from their record collection without resorting to external components.
For advanced configurations the AMP IN inputs allow the A12 APEX to be integrated into a home cinema system where it takes charge of amplifying the front channels with genuine Hi Fi quality far exceeding that of conventional AV amplifiers.
On top of this its two subwoofer outputs configurable in mono or stereo mode make it possible to optimise low frequency response improve overall system coherence and reinforce spatialisation even in purist stereo setups.
Compatibility with the optional A BTC Bluetooth adapter further extends its versatility.
This accessory enables high quality wireless playback from smartphones tablets or computers as well as connection of Bluetooth headphones for private listening without sacrificing sound quality.
Robust elegant and built with great attention to detail the A12 APEX is aimed at listeners who seek real power refined sound and a reference level listening experience.
A hybrid integrated amplifier that impresses not only with its specifications but with its ability to convey emotion and realism in every note.
