Description
Audiolab 6000A integrated amplifier with DAC based on ESS ES9018 chip, Bluetooth, phono input and headphone amplifier.
Audiolab 6000A integrated amplifier with DAC based on ESS ES9018 chip, Bluetooth, phono input and headphone amplifier.
There are four digital inputs on board the device - a pair of optical and coaxial, capable of receiving signals in quality up to 24 bit/192 kHz. Three digital filters are provided: fast fall-off, slow fall-off, and minimum phase.
The amplification is designed in class AB, the device produces 50 W per channel into 8 ohms. Power is provided by a 200 VA toroidal transformer with capacitors with a total capacity of 60,000 pF. In circuit design, a lot of attention was paid to shielding the preamplifier section, protecting it from interference. In a headphone amplifier, feedback operates using current. The MM phono stage circuit is made using field-effect transistors.
The 6000A has three operating modes: main, where both a preamplifier and a power amplifier function, a Pre-Power power amplifier mode for connecting, for example, to a home theater system, and a Pre mode, in which the device operates only as a preamplifier.
