Primare I21 Audiophile Amplifier at AV-Zone.co.uk

The I21 is a chic, affordable and easy to use stereo amplifier with an engineering heritage that may be traced through generations of class-beating 'budget' Primare amplifiers.

The latest design improvements result in a sound that is very open and detailed with terrific bass control and effortless dynamics, "more expensive, more high-end".

And there is power enough to drive even the most inefficient set of loudspeakers.

The I21 has an engineering heritage that may be traced through generations of class-beating 'budget' Primare amplifiers, each the beneficiary of an improved version of the 'classic' configuration of JFET input and bi-polar output devices, typical of far more expensive equipment.

The amplifier incorporates a massive 800VA toroidal transformer with separate windings for left and right power amp channels, effectively providing each channel with its own mono amplifier. The sheer physical size of this transformer makes it an inherently good mains filter and its low output impedance promotes good voltage stabilisation.

Another key design feature is a digital volume control to ensure excellent channel balance and a flat frequency response at any volume.

As many as four sources can use the I21's muscular 75 watts and there are flexible output options including pre-outputs for an additional power amplifier.

Available in black or silver.
