The sonic magic of audio tubes

Music lovers will appreciate the warmth and rich sound offered by these tubes, often compared to the timeless smoothness of vinyl. Thanks to its hybrid technology combining tubes and transistors, the A10 APEX transforms every listening session into an immersive experience, where each instrument stands out with precision and the most subtle nuances of the music come alive.

Want to play a record? 

The A10 APEX is compatible with turntables using MM cartridges (the most common type). It incorporates an RIAA phono preamp to fully appreciate the musicality of your vinyl records.

Compatible with your Home Cinema amplifier

Are you passionate about cinema but don't want to compromise on the precision of Hi-Fi sound? Thanks to its AMP-IN inputs , the A10 APEX integrates easily into a home cinema setup. It then amplifies your main left and right speakers, providing them with pure Hi-Fi sound quality , far superior to that of a traditional AV receiver.

Mono or Stereo Subwoofers

Properly calibrated subwoofers significantly enhance the bass response, even in demanding Hi-Fi setups. The A10 APEX features two subwoofer outputs that can be configured in mono or stereo mode to optimise bass coherence and spatialisation for your system.

A-BTC compatibility

The A-BTC dongle offers full Bluetooth connectivity: it allows you to easily connect your phone, tablet or computer to the A10 APEX. It also allows the connection of Bluetooth headphones , ideal for listening to your music or watching a movie in silence, without compromising on sound quality.

The perfect partner for your television

Thanks to its HDMI eARC input , the A10 APEX amplifier connects directly to your TV for simplified use. CEC functionality ensures synchronisation: when you turn on the TV, the amplifier also turns on, and volume control is available directly from the TV remote.
