Not sure it's the right fit for your room or system? Our team can talk you through it.
Studio-derived design and 400 watts into 4 ohms give owners of demanding loudspeakers real power in reserve, and a recent service has renewed the main filtering.
Its stereo rating is specified down to 4 ohms, so it is designed for low impedance loudspeakers. Balanced XLR and RCA inputs let it connect to either balanced or unbalanced sources, so the connection can follow the rest of your system. Pre-loved and in good condition, it has a small mark on the fascia and comes in its original packaging. Hi Fi and Stereo in Brisbane recently replaced all main filtering capacitors, carried out detailed testing and issued a service report.
Suited to a stereo system built around demanding loudspeakers, in a room where headroom is the priority. Call the team or talk with us in person about the minimum load and how the input choice fits your source or preamplifier.

Master Sound Works
The passion of the moment music is created is passed from the recording site to the listening room. In that, you the listener share a musical experience with the creators. It is a bridge to just such a euphoria that Esoteric entrusted this new model of power amplifier to provide.
The A-02 stereo power amplifier is infused with know-how gained from professional studio devices based on the unique Master Sound Works concept. We pursued sound quality befitting original master recording playback through collaboration with studio engineers as an extension of design ideas of the highly esteemed A-03. Moreover, we adopted technologies and innovative measures to improve speaker driving power expected in professional applications.
Lavish application of high-level craftsmanship was made with a focus on the sound desired by artists and engineers. That way, music enthusiasts can be treated to the creators' commitment to music without any loss of scale and quality.
