Toroidal Transformer
The A-S2200 utilises toroidal power transformers, esteemed for their exceptional performance in Hi-Fi components. Their ability to retain energy, in contrast to alternatives, empowers the A-S2200 to convey the emotional energy of the artist infused within the music.
Elegant Level Meters
The level meters pay homage to the nostalgic era of Hi-Fi while underlining the significance of pure Hi-Fi for today’s discerning enthusiasts. By visually portraying the dynamics and rhythm of the music, the softly illuminated LED level meters evoke a warm, nostalgic feel.
ENGAGEMENT
True Hi-Fi places the artist at the forefront, transcending the listener’s physical space. Music listening transforms into an immersive, active experience rather than a passive pursuit. Yamaha’s Hi-Fi range embodies this musical experience of true engagement.
Sturdy Ground Connection using Thick Wires
A naturally expansive sound stage is achieved through meticulous design and component selection. Specifically chosen thick wires for ground connection contribute to the overall low impedance amplifier design, resulting in a broad and expansive sound stage that envelops the listener. Consequently, the components fade into the background, leaving the artist’s presence intact.
Refined Speaker Terminals
Crafted from pure brass, the luxurious speaker terminals allow effortless tightening by hand, ensuring a highly secure connection.
RHYTHM
Music goes beyond storytelling. The rhythm and groove of the music reach the listener, consciously or subconsciously, evoking emotions from the music’s narrative. Presenting the music as envisioned by the artist accomplishes this for the listener.
Mechanical Ground Concept
The Mechanical Ground Concept, embraced in the A-S2200, maximises rigidity and minimises unwanted vibrations, resulting in expressive and rhythmic bass. Further rigidity is achieved by directly bolting the large power transformer, block capacitors, and heat sink to the chassis. Moreover, the feet, welded with bolts to the main chassis, reinforce absolute rigidity.
Silver-Plated Brass Feet
The heavy-duty silver-plated brass feet complete the amplifier’s structural integrity.
