Description
Note: There is alot of reading below. 150i is in great amp - without issue. I bought it new from Perreaux authorized dealer in New Zealand..They then shipped directly to Perreaux USA service center converted power supply from 220vac to 115vac for like $80. Designed and built in New Zealand I just dont use it to its full potential. Usually driving it at 1 watt or less. So needs a better home where the unit can preform as it was designed for. In a living room with expensive speakers. Sat in its location since I bought new. No scratches or dents. See my other auctions. I also sold my pass lab xa-25. This is a better sounding unit. After selling my pass lab, last week, I hooked it up in its place for my home system and played my reference cd that I listed to over many years. I heard notes on the cd I never heard before and music to the very far right against the side wall that had me looking over there like where is that coming from! Spanish Harlem, her voice was like I never heard before. She just filled the air all around me in stereo. Never heard this level of clarity from the pass lab. I now understand what level of electronics, and more importantly, how much money one needs to spend to get to this level. Btw, my speakers are the original jbl 100s that I listen to since 1976. I did modify btw with Jantzen crossovers..unbelievable sound from them that I never replaced and I tried many times. Thanks Kevin Disregard pass lab mcintosh. Features at a Glance MM phone Highly refined circuit design Capacitor-free signal path- no phase changes Precision volume control Non-invasive balance control MOSFET technology one Balanced input and rest rca Intuitive user interface Highly customisable Infrared remote control Smart home integration Protection Construction Optional modules available such as a dac (not included) We maintain the human-link throughout; from design and construction, through to the ultimate test your music, your system, your ears. Because we too listen to our products, we know that with your loquence integrated amplifier you will discover many more of the musical secrets we strive to reveal. Features Highly Refined Circuit Design All Perreaux analogue amplification stages are based on circuits that have been extensively optimised over many years of continuous development. By starting with excellent circuit designs and working with them over the years, we are able to discover the many small refinements that add up to superlative performance, in a variety of applications. Capacitor-Free Signal Path The inputs of the loquence 150i are DC coupled and there is not a single capacitor in the signal path that the audio signal passes through, improving low-frequency response and linearity. There are no capacitors to degrade over time and hinder performance, so the amplifier will essen- tially sound the same years after its initial purchase. Precision Volume Control The loquence 150i uses a solid-state stepped attenuator offering precise resolution with exceptional channel matching. The sealed package and lack of mechanical contacts, results in an ageless volume control wiper noise and component drift is a thing of the past. Non-Invasive Balance Control Balance control in the loquence 150i is accomplished without the addi- tion of any further circuitry, thereby removing its potential effects on the audio signal. The balance control benefits from the same precise resolu- tion offered by the volume control. MOSFET Technology As with all Perreaux products, the loquence 150i integrated amplifier capitalises on the benefits of using MOSFET technology in its output stages excellent high-frequency response, improved distortion perform- ance and reliability. Balanced Input The loquence 150i features a balanced input via XLR connectors, allow- ing optimal performance with the many high-end CD players and other audio components that utilise the benefits of balanced outputs. Intuitive User Interface The interface knob on the front panel of the loquence 150i is the heart of the user interface experience allowing fundamental control of the volume, and intuitive navigation and adjustment within the loquence menu system. Highly Customisable Many settings of the loquence 150i are user customisable inputs may be named appropriately, select only inputs that are used, precisely match volume levels between inputs, set inputs to bypass the volume control, set initial and maximum volumes. Essentially, the amplifier can operate as if it were custom designed for your system. These are only a selection of the available settings you can customise; continue reading for discus- sion on other customisable settings. Infrared Remote Control The supplied infrared (IR) remote control offers complete control over the loquence 150i in a small and functional package. External control by IR is also offered via the IR input on the rear panel, should the amplifier be inside a cabinet or outside line-of-sight of the remote control. Smart Home Integration The loquence 150i can easily be integrated into any smart home, using the RS-232 port at the rear of the amplifier and interfacing to devices from the likes of Control4, AMX and Crestron. Coupled with the IR input, smart home integration has never been easier. Immensly moving. The loquence integrated amplifiers include all the hallmarks of Perreaux engineering design high power, authoritative speaker control, MOSFET output devices, low distortion and solid build-quality. At the heart of the loquence amplifiers are custom-designed high-current toroid power transformers, with an XQ core and magnetic shielding to provide low electrical and mechanical noise. Low-impedance power supplies, along with MOSFET output devices and Class-A signal stages ensure the loquence integrated amplifiers are dynamic, commanding and resolute. The effortless power delivery of the loquence amplifiers and ultra-low distortion and noise levels result in a naturally clean and open presentation with the airy space, seamless depth and precise imaging expected from high-end amplifiers. An intuitive user interface allows control of the extensive range of features and settings for seamless integration into any hi fi or home theatre system, whilst serving as a constant reminder of the meticulous craftsmanship of the loquence amplifiers.
