Yamaha A-S3200

With unparalleled experience in every aspect of music creation, deeply embedded in Yamaha's DNA is an intimate understanding of the emotional essence of music and music creation. Conveying the emotion of the artists through hi-fi equipment is a fundamental part of Yamaha's design philosophy. In the unyielding pursuit of innovation and musicality, Yamaha proudly presents its flagship integrated amplifier. The Yamaha A-S3200 is carefully designed from the ground up and realizes the artist's ambitions and sets a new standard in high-fidelity audio. Fully balanced circuits for an impressively low signal-to-noise ratio and improved channel separation, together with a large toroidal transformer, ensure pure musicality. The mechanical base concept maximizes rigidity and reduces unwanted vibrations. High-quality PPS capacitors deliver an authentic musical sound. Beautiful level meters visually reflect the dynamics and heartbeat of the music from the obsessively, meticulously designed circuit. The A-S3200 stands on sturdy brass feet with spikes or a scratch-resistant base. The speaker connections are made of pure brass with a very secure connection. The fully balanced circuit of the A-S3200 offers a number of advantages. The impressively low signal-to-noise ratio ensures that the 'gaps' in the music, or the silence in which the artist captures the listener's attention, do exactly what they are intended to do: create silence. The design also contributes to improved channel separation, creating a soundstage that almost makes the entire system disappear. This gives the listener the feeling that they are in the same room as the artist and not listening to a CD or LP. The phono amplifier consists of an MC head amplifier and an equalizer amplifier. Each of these amplifiers is separately configured for a rich sound with pronounced musicality when playing vinyl with both MC and MM phono cartridges.
