Equipped with a very unique aesthetic and executed with exceptional precision in mechanical terms (the enclosure is made of stainless steel and aluminum) and electrical, the RA280 is a 100% analog stereo integrated amplifier that draws on the innovative engineering solutions of the formidable RA180, recognized by worldwide specialized critics as one of the achievements that have best known how to combine analog and digital technology to put it at the service of sound reproduction with capital letters.
Thus, it incorporates a power amplification section configured in the exclusive Class AD of the Asian company, which highlights the use of latest generation FET devices based on Gallium Nitride (GaN), which combines the efficiency of Class D with the smoothness and warmth of a traditional analog amplifier. To this we must add another key subsystem: a power supply in which Silicon Carbide field effect transistors (FET) are used instead of conventional Silicon ones, in order to increase efficiency and stability.
In this way, the RA280 is capable of delivering a high power output while minimizing heat generation, regardless of the impedance value of the speakers used. Equally refined is the phono section, compatible with moving magnet (MM) capsules and equipped with a sophisticated, very precise compensation circuit to minimize coloration.
