This amplifier is a unique example of ISEM ‘know how’. A direct descendant of our famous Antares model, it uses the most advanced technology to achieve a very original concept. In the interests of obtaining an uninterrupted signal path, ISEM has rejected the conventional arrangement of separate pre- and power amplifier stages in one box. Instead, the xtasis model achieves full amplification in a single ultra linear stage which offers sufficient gain over a wide spectrum from any line-level input signal. Moreover, since the gain can be adjusted without affecting the stability of the unit, xtasis can be used either as an integrated amplifier or, in conjunction with a separate preamp, as a power amplifier, without any loss of performance.
To deliver this unique concept, the xtasis is equipped with "Dynamic Configuration Checking" (DyCC) which allows the listener to switch at will between ‘integrated’ and ‘power’ amplifier modes for different signal sources.
Class A operation giving up to 15 watts wrms into 8 ohms. A generously rated power supply ensures high performance levels. All functions are controlled through the unique ISEM "One Touch Control" button, or via remote control.
Xtasis is the ultimate choice when not only very high grade but also compact equipment is needed. |  |
