Advance Paris A8 APEX

Seria APEX jest wynikiem wysiłków zespołu inżynierów Advance Paris, którzy postanowili przesunąć granice naszej serii Classic pod względem wydajności i funkcjonalności. A8 APEX charakteryzuje się hybrydową konstrukcją naszych flagowych wzmacniaczy zintegrowanych w bardziej kompaktowym formacie, ale nadal zapewnia wysoką moc (76 W w klasie A/B przy 8 Ω) i tę samą muzykalność, która jest uznawana na całym świecie. Aby uczcić 30-lecie marki, przedstawiamy specjalną limitowaną edycję 30TH EDITION w czarnym wykończeniu. A8 APEX łączy w sobie ponadczasowy design z nowoczesną technologią, zapewniając moc, muzykalność i łatwość obsługi.

The sound magic of audio tubes

Whether listening to a classic or discovering new melodies, the user will be transported into an exceptional world of sound, rediscovering the pleasure of top-quality listening.
