The A10 is a giant killer compact tube line integrated amplifier from PURESOUND . Operating in Class A and delivering 10 Watts per channel it is intended for users of sensitivity loudspeakers or for those seeking high performance valve sound in a smaller space. This is not a rock concert PA amplifier so look elsewhere if that's what you are wanting, that said 10wpc of class A is not exactly small!
The A10 accepts two line level inputs and may be switched to drive 4 or 8 ohm loudspeakers. The well designed circuit is based around the sweet sounding 6P14 valve which is a modern equivalent to the EL84/6BQ5 family of valves (these can also be used should you wish to tube roll the amplifier).
We have used one of these amplifiers across a number of speakers in our showroom in Leeds, the Solid-Sounds Spinning Room and it never fails to amaze those that hear it. Yes trying to drive some 82db monster speakers isn't going to work but put it with any 87-88db upwards speakers and you'll be blown away with the Puresound A10 sound.
If you want to start on your journey of tube amplifier ownership but don't want to take the risk of buying a vintage, Ch-fi, discontinued or even DIY model then the Puresound A10 is great way to experience the very addictive holographic valve sound. What is more you have the peace of mind that the product is backed up with a 3 year warranty on the electronics with servicing being based in the UK.
The Puresound A10 has earned Best Buy awards in the UK and Russia and has just won a 'Golden Ear' award for best amplifier in Germany's 'Audio' magazine.
