Manunta Classic Stereophonic Integrated Amplifier

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is a stereo integrated amplifier designed to form the heart of a Hi-Fi system. Just add a source and a pair of speakers.

It accepts four high-level sources, such as DAC, CD player, tuner, tape recorder and TV, one of which is balanced, plus a turntable. The turntable input accepts both MM and MC cartridges and, if not in use, can be transformed into another high-level input simply by acting on a switch on the rear panel.

It drives a pair of loudspeakers and a stereo headset. In addition, it is equipped with a preamplified output to drive an active subwoofer, or for a power amplifier with a higher performance than the internal one, or even to associate a second power amplifier to the internal one to implement passive bi-amplification of the loudspeakers.

It is equipped with an infrared remote control and a WiFi interface through which it can be controlled from any smartphone thanks to the free app provided by M2Tech on the Apple Store and Google Play.

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is designed for music. Its power circuit is structured to accommodate the dynamic behavior of the musical program, consisting of a succession of short impulsive peaks interspersed with longer interludes at medium-low level. Think of a drum kit or singing. For this reason, compared to a continuous power output of 60Wrms per channel on 8 Ohm and 100Wrms per channel on 4 Ohm, the Classic Integrated Amplifier is able to provide a dynamic power of 155Wrms per channel on 8 Ohm and up to 240Wrms per channel on 4 Ohm! In short, the Classic Integrated Amplifier costs, consumes and heats up like a 50W amplifier but sounds like a 150W one. Not bad, right?

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is assembled with great care by hand in Italy, because at M2Tech we strongly believe in the added value of expert craftsmanship that gives quality to the product and dignity to the worker. It is made using only components mounted on through holes. They offer a greater variety of choice compared to surface-mount components. This allowed us to choose the most suitable components in the design phase based on sound and power handling, because we wanted to create a product that sounds good and lasts over time: an investment for life.

The Classic Integrated Amplifier is an ethical and environmentally friendly product. The mechanical components are made in Italy in compliance with European environmental regulations. Its power supply allows for optimal use of the energy stored in it, its standby circuit consumes just over a tenth of a Watt. In compliance with the repairability index regulation recently issued by the European Union, the Classic Integrated Amplifier uses only components that are easily available and replaceable in the unlikely event of a failure, to guarantee prolonged use over time.
