It's the model that first makes Advance Paris's tube-hybrid philosophy affordable for many – without sounding like an entry-level product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the A10 ClassicLine?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the glass window on the front, real ECC81 tubes glow – and that's not mood lighting: the tube preamp gives voices and instruments a warmth and body that's hard to find elsewhere in this price class. At the same time, the powerful amp stage – trimmed for especially refined partial-load operation via the Hi-Bias switch when needed – delivers enough reserves for full-size floorstanding speakers. Preamp and power amp can be separated, in case you want to go your own way later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSix analog RCA inputs, a balanced XLR input and an MM phono stage for your turntable – plus digital HDMI ARC for the TV, a second HDMI audio input, three optical and one coaxial input, and USB-B for your computer, all converted by the ESS 9018 DAC. Via USB-A, the A10 plays MP3 files straight from a stick. Two mono subwoofer outputs with low-pass filter, Rec-Out, two switchable speaker zones and VU meters with genuine stage presence round out the package. You can add Bluetooth as needed via the optional Advance dongle (X-FTB01\/X-FTB02) on the 5-volt output. A streaming subscription? You don't need one: vinyl, CD, TV and computer all play without any ongoing cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the A10 ClassicLine right for – and who isn't it right for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonestly: at 14.5 kilos and almost 39 centimeters deep, this isn't a device for a narrow wall shelf, and tubes want airflow, not a closed cabinet. If you're after everything in one box including network streaming, you're better served by the MyConnect family. And if you like listening on headphones in the evening, you should know: the A10 ClassicLine has no headphone jack – instead, a separate headphone amp connects to the Pre-Out. But if you want classic hi-fi with tube charm, plenty of power, and modern TV connectivity, you get remarkably much amplifier for the money here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A10 ClassicLine has for years been one of the most likeable ways into the tube-hybrid world – characterful, powerful and uncomplicated.

The ECC81 tubes shape the sound in the preamp – warm, vivid, with voices you feel you could reach out and touch – while the power stage with its 380 VA toroidal transformer keeps a firm grip even on power-hungry floorstanders. The icing on the cake is the High-Bias switch: it runs the first watts practically in Class A – audibly smoother at room volume, which is where most music-listening happens anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ESS Sabre 9018 converts PCM up to 24-bit\/192 kHz and DSD128 via USB.

Two switchable speaker zones, Pre-Out with separable power amp, Rec-Out, two subwoofer outputs and a 6.35mm headphone jack round out the package.

It's the flagship of the Classic Line series – the big brother of the A10, with more power, more connections, and the same glowing tubes behind the viewing window. The illuminated VU meters come along for free – it used to take a second device for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the A12 ClassicLine?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it cleanly joins two worlds: the preamp works with selected tubes and brings warmth and richness to the sound, while the Class AB power stage delivers, with 2 × 280 watts into 4 ohms, the control that large speakers need. Two channel-separated toroidal transformers ensure stable power delivery, and with the High-Bias switch you raise the bias current toward Class A – for even more tube character whenever you're in the mood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe equipment goes far beyond a classic integrated amplifier: phono input for MM and MC cartridges, two balanced XLR inputs, five RCA inputs, three optical and three coaxial digital inputs each, AES\/EBU, USB-B for your computer, USB-A for MP3 files from a stick, plus an HDMI audio input and an HDMI ARC connection for the TV. Preamp and power amp can be separated, plus there's Pre-Out in RCA and XLR, Rec-Out, two subwoofer outputs, speaker zones A\/B and a 6.35mm headphone output.

For a study with compact speakers it's overqualified – the A10 is entirely sufficient there, and your back will thank you when setting it up (17.9 kg).

Advance Paris thereby celebrates 30 years of brand history – and instead of anniversary wallpaper, you get substance: dual-mono construction with two 280 VA toroidal transformers, the ESS Sabre ES9039 flagship converter, and a good 18 kilos of honest weight.

The preamp works with two ECC81\/12AT7 tubes, and the power stage delivers 2 × 292 watts into 4 ohms.

Output happens via Pre-Out (RCA and XLR), Rec-Out, two subwoofer outputs and speaker zones A\/B – plus two headphone jacks (6.35 mm and 3.5 mm).

For a small bookshelf-speaker setup in the office, it's simply oversized – that would be like using a semi truck to pick up a croissant. And if you want built-in streaming, better look at the MyConnect or PlayStream series, or add a streamer.

At only 13.2 cm tall, it's the slimmest of the three APEX amplifiers – yet it still has the glowing ECC81 tubes behind the viewing window and the white VU meters. Understatement that glows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the A8 APEX?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe APEX series is Advance Paris's anniversary edition for its 30-year milestone: upgraded Classic Line technology with lower-noise power supplies and more precise voltage regulation, limited to black with white VU meters. In the A8, a tube preamp with two ECC81\/12AT7s works ahead of a Class AB power stage – and via the High-Bias switch you raise the bias current toward Class A. More tube richness at the push of a button, a feature that's anything but standard in this price class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor its size, the A8 APEX is remarkably complete: the ESS Sabre 9018 DAC converts PCM up to 24-bit\/192 kHz and DSD up to DSD128 via USB, HDMI eARC brings TV sound into the stereo system, plus two coaxial and one optical input, seven RCA inputs, and a phono MM input for your turntable. Pre-Out, Sub-Out and Rec-Out cover the output side, the speaker terminals can be switched as Zone A\/B, and a 6.35mm headphone connection waits at the front. Bluetooth can be added optionally via an A-BTC module – none of it needs a subscription.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the A8 APEX right for – and who isn't it right for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain talk: the A8 APEX suits compact and standard floorstanding speakers in normal living rooms perfectly – and anyone who wants a flat, elegant device rather than a monster. If you want to fill a 40-square-meter room with low-efficiency speakers, you're better off with the A10 or A12 APEX. And MC cartridge fans need an external phono stage – the A8 does MM from the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes TV sound run through the A8 APEX?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, via HDMI eARC. Connect the TV, control the volume with the TV remote, done – movies and shows simply sound more grown-up through real speakers than through any soundbar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs 76 watts enough?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor most rooms and speakers: yes, easily. Wattage figures are overrated, current delivery is underrated – and that's where the 240 VA toroidal transformer scores. For very large rooms or difficult loads, we'll honestly advise you whether it should be the bigger brother.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A8 APEX brings tube charm, a modern DAC and eARC into a compact, limited housing – probably the most elegant way to enter the APEX world.

The A10 and A12 offer more power, with the A12 additionally featuring the ES9039 DAC, XLR inputs and Phono MM\/MC. For normal living rooms, the A8 is often the most sensible choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I connect a turntable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the A8 APEX has a built-in phono input for MM cartridges – your turntable connects directly to the amplifier. Only for MC systems would you need an external phono stage. We're happy to work out which solution suits your turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the A8 APEX have streaming or Bluetooth built in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, not from the factory. You can add Bluetooth optionally via an A-BTC module; streaming is added via a network streamer at the digital input. Vinyl, CD and TV sound via eARC are of course enjoyed without a subscription or extra device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the High-Bias switch do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe High-Bias switch raises the power stage's bias current so it partly operates in Class A. The result is an even warmer, smoother sound – ideal for focused listening evenings. In everyday use you simply switch it back and save power and heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I connect two pairs of speakers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the A8 APEX's speaker terminals can be operated as Zone A and Zone B – say, living room and kitchen, individually or together. When running them in parallel, keep an eye on impedances; we're happy to work out which combination is uncritical for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the A8 APEX at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the question «A8, A10 or A12?» depends on your room and your speakers – and that's exactly what we help with.

Advance Paris does it differently and builds a real Class AB power stage with a linear power supply into the MyConnect 60, instead of the usual Class D budget solution – plus a proven Wolfson WM8740 converter. The result sounds like grown-up hi-fi, not a kitchen radio with ambitions.

The 60 is the specialist for normal living rooms, offices and holiday homes – there it performs big without overreaching.

Instead, a 700-watt toroidal transformer, balanced XLR inputs, and two VU meters that show you just how little power you actually draw while listening to music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the X-A160 EVO?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chamber-divided chassis shields the power supply, input stage and power section from one another. At its centre sits a 700-watt toroidal transformer with four filter capacitors of 10,000 µF each – an energy reservoir that handles dynamic peaks cleanly instead of choking them off. That's exactly where the headroom comes from that lets even low-efficiency speakers be driven with authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the back sits the High Bias switch. Activated, it raises the idle current, so the first watts run in Class A – right where you do most of your listening at home. When more is demanded, the power amp automatically switches to Class AB. Advance Paris deliberately doesn't name a fixed wattage for this, instead speaking of \"the first watts\". And the two big VU meters? Sonically completely irrelevant. We still wouldn't want to do without them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbove all, quiet. THD is below 0.07 percent, signal-to-noise ratio above 120 dB, cooling is purely passive – no fan, no self-noise from the chassis. What arrives is therefore exactly what your preamp sends: a stable, dry bass, clean channel separation, and in High Bias operation a level of detail that suddenly makes quiet passages exciting. In standby, the power amp draws less than half a watt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the X-A160 EVO suited for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who wants to split up their chain and upgrade it piece by piece later: preamp today, speakers tomorrow, power amp stays.

The X-A160 EVO is a pure power amplifier with no volume control and no source selection. Any preamp or integrated amplifier with a pre-out works, connected via RCA or balanced via XLR. From the same maker, the Advance Paris X-P700 or X-P1200 are good options. We're happy to help you match the combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the High Bias switch do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt raises the idle current so the first watts operate smoothly in Class A – with minimal crossover distortion and finer resolution at normal listening volumes. When the music demands more power, the amp automatically switches to Class AB. Advance Paris doesn't state a fixed wattage for the Class A range. The switch is on the rear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs 2×160 watts enough for my speakers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasily enough for the vast majority of living rooms. More important than the wattage is stability into low impedance: at 4 ohms, the X-A160 EVO delivers 2×240 watts, backed by the 700-watt toroidal transformer. That keeps even speakers with an unruly impedance curve under control. Tell us your model and we'll give you an honest answer on whether it fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the X-A160 EVO get hot in High Bias operation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarmer, yes – that comes with the increased idle current. Cooling is passive, via generous heatsinks, entirely without a fan and thus without any extra noise. Free space above and beside the unit matters; a tightly closed rack compartment is the wrong choice. In standby, consumption is below 0.5 watts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the X-A160 EVO from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause a separated chain needs planning: preamp, speakers, cabling and placement all have to work together.

With High Bias activated, the sound gains noticeably in smoothness at room volume.

Bridged, it delivers 400 W at 8 Ω and 700 W at 4 Ω. For that you need one unit per channel and the matching link kit.

The resulting signal-to-noise ratio of about 107 dB is a figure you don't hear — and that's exactly the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeally, nothing that wasn't there before. The Bellini doesn't sharpen and doesn't warm anything up; it opens up the space because it clears the noise out of the way. That's most obvious at low levels: reverb tails don't cut off, breath sounds stay breath sounds instead of turning into background noise. Paired with the Donizetti Anniversary you get the combination both units were developed for — same signature, same stubbornness about the power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Bellini Anniversary for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlainly put: if you want a system without cable clutter, you're better off with an integrated amplifier — the Bellini absolutely needs a power amp behind it and makes no sound without one. Streaming, a converter and phono aren't on board either. It makes sense where preamp and power amp belong separated: with long cable runs, with fully balanced wiring throughout, and with chains meant to grow over years rather than being replaced wholesale every three.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bellini Anniversary is a device for people who've understood that the preamp isn't an accessory. It does little — and does it very precisely.

Thanks to RCA and XLR outputs it can be combined flexibly; what matters is just a matching input sensitivity and impedance on the power amp.

Which other preamp might suit, we'll work out with you based on input sensitivity and impedance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does mono operation mean on the Donizetti Anniversary?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridged, both channels of one unit work on a single speaker and together deliver around 1000 W at 8 Ω. For stereo you then need two Donizettis. This brings more power and better channel separation. How mono operation is set up on your unit, we'll clarify beforehand with the distributor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Donizetti also drive hard-to-power speakers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's exactly what it's built for. 950 W at 2 Ω and an output impedance of 0.15 Ω keep even impedance-critical floorstanders under control without the bass turning soft. Tell us your speaker model with its efficiency and minimum impedance, and we'll confirm suitability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much space and ventilation does the Donizetti need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power amp measures 450 × 221 × 428 mm (W × H × D) and weighs 41.2 kg — a standard rack shelf is often not up to the task.

The low output impedance of 0.15 Ω keeps the woofer under tight control, and 26 dB of gain at 2.3 Vrms input sensitivity matches practically any serious preamp.

Bridged, one unit delivers around 1000 W at 8 Ω, 1700 W at 4 Ω and 2200 W at 2 Ω, each driving one speaker. So for stereo you need two units.

A potentiometer's resistance curve shifts over the years and never tracks perfectly between channels; switched precision resistors don't.

It's built in Tuscany, and you can tell the moment you touch it: 14 millimetres of brushed aluminium on the front, 15.5 kilos on the scale, a volume knob that feels like a good tool. The black finish keeps a low visual profile and disappears into the rack — until you switch it on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Puccini Anniversary?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it does the maths differently from most amplifiers its size. A 700 VA transformer and twelve output transistors — three complementary pairs per channel — deliver 80 W into 8 Ω, 160 W into 4 Ω and 300 W into 2 Ω. This doubling staircase is the real hallmark of quality — it shows the power supply keeps delivering even as your speakers' impedance drops. Volume doesn't run through a classic potentiometer but through an encoder driving four high-precision digital potentiometers — two per channel. A signal-to-noise ratio of around 110 dB keeps things quiet between the notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl without harshness. The Puccini doesn't push the bass, it holds it firm; vocals stand free in the centre without anyone having touched the presence region.

In orchestral recordings and dense rock mixes, layering stays intact instead of collapsing into a blur — and that's exactly how you tell whether an amplifier has reserves or just spec-sheet numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Puccini Anniversary for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight talk: if you want to fill a very large room with power-hungry floorstanding speakers, the bigger Maestro Anniversary with its 150 W into 8 Ω is the better fit. And anyone looking for a unit with streaming, a converter and phono already built in will search in vain here — the Puccini is deliberately pure analogue technology.

What matters here is less the room size than the efficiency and impedance curve of your speakers. Tell us your model and we'll place it for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat connections does the Puccini Anniversary have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour unbalanced RCA inputs and one balanced XLR input, plus gold-plated binding posts for the speaker cables. Input impedance is 47 kΩ, sensitivity for rated power 490 mVrms.

The Maestro Anniversary delivers 150 W into 8 Ω, weighs 31 kg and measures 450 × 168 × 550 mm. The Puccini stays far more living-room-friendly at 15.5 kg and 445 × 120 × 390 mm. For most speakers, the Puccini is entirely sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre streaming, a converter or phono built in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Puccini Anniversary is a purely analogue integrated amplifier without a network module, without a digital-to-analogue converter and without a phono input.

In silver it shows what it's made of: 14 millimetres of brushed aluminium catches the light differently than a painted front, and its 15.5 kilos of live weight explain themselves the moment you lift it. A unit you notice without it shouting for attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Puccini Anniversary?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the power supply sets the tone here. 700 VA of transformer capacity and twelve output transistors, three pairs per channel, add up to 80 W into 8 Ω, 160 W into 4 Ω and 300 W into 2 Ω — so power doubles with every halving of impedance, something not all amplifiers this size manage. Instead of a classic volume potentiometer, an encoder drives four precision digital potentiometers, two per channel. The result: exact channel tracking, even late at night at room volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbove all, what doesn't happen. No hissing in the treble, no bloated upper bass, no audible strain when the music gets dense. The Puccini plays grounded and colourful at the same time: piano attacks keep their body, strings keep their bloom. At around 110 dB signal-to-noise ratio, there's genuine silence between the notes — a detail you only notice with quiet recordings and don't want to give up afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Puccini Anniversary for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight talk: in very large rooms with impedance-critical floorstanding speakers, it's not the last word — that's where the Maestro Anniversary's territory begins, with its 150 W into 8 Ω. And anyone wanting everything in one unit, network and converter included, won't be happy with the Puccini. If instead you're after an honest analogue amplifier that stays the fixed point of a growing system for years, this is exactly right for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Puccini Anniversary isn't a unit for the feature list, but one for everyday life: switch on, pick a source, listen.

Both models bring the full MM\/MC phono input – vinyl and silver disc on one unit, which is unusual today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CS 30.3 sounds clean, controlled and surprisingly big for a unit this height. From CD it plays direct and effortless, streamed in hi-res a touch airier. Distortion below 0.005 % and a signal-to-noise ratio above 95 dB aren't marketing figures, they're what you hear as calm between the notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing is missing on the source side: Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz, HighResAudio, AirPlay 2, Roon Ready, UPnP, internet radio and Bluetooth 5.0. Your TV connects via HDMI ARC and controls the volume at the same time, and multiroom runs via AVM RoomConneXion. A subscription is never a requirement – CD, vinyl, web radio and files from a NAS are entirely sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the AVM CS 30.3 right for – and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor everyone looking for an uncompromising but compact complete solution: one unit, a pair of speakers, done. Honestly: if you never insert a CD, you're paying here for a drive you don't need – then the AVM AS 30.3 is the same unit without the slot. And if you're filling very large rooms or a difficult speaker load, you're better served by the bigger Evolution or Ovation CS models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CS 30.3 is the most compact honest complete system we've come across: streaming, CD and phono in one hand-built housing, without any of the three sources feeling like a concession.

Where the compact CS models reach their limits, the Evolution CS 3.3 is only just getting going, with genuine power reserves and balanced inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the AVM Evolution CS 3.3?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CS 3.3 is for everyone who wants a complete system in one unit, without making concessions on power or connections. 2 × 350 watts at 4 Ω (2 × 180 watts at 8 Ω) drive even large floorstanding speakers with authority, and via outputs A and B even two pairs at once. The preamp works in pure transistor technology – clean, fast, neutral, with distortion below 0.001 % and a signal-to-noise ratio above 100 dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe digital section is built on a selected ESS9028PRO in double-quad configuration with four converters per channel, and the X-STREAM Engine streams in high resolution up to DSD256 and PCM 384 kHz\/32 bit. The highlight for vinyl listeners: the phono stage is calibratable, with load resistance and capacitance fine-tuned precisely to your cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz, HighResAudio and Roon run directly, AirPlay 2 and internet radio are built in – no subscription required. Plus balanced XLR and three RCA inputs, HDMI ARC for the TV, coaxial and optical digital, a slot-in CD drive, USB-A for storage media, Bluetooth 5.0 and a headphone output on the front. Control is via the free RC X App; a wireless remote (RC 3 \/ RC 8 or RC 9 \/ RC 10) is available as an accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Evolution CS 3.3 right for – and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHonestly: the CS 3.3 is for demanding listeners with larger rooms and good floorstanding speakers, who want to keep using their CD collection and also want a first-class, adjustable phono stage. For smaller rooms, the compact Inspiration CS 2.3 is enough. And if you prefer the warmer, rounder character of a tube preamp, reach for the equally powerful Evolution CS 5.3.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CS 3.3 in Silver is the unassuming all-rounder: streamer, CD player, phono stage, headphone output and a power amp with serious reserves – all in one housing that doesn't shout on the shelf. If you want to replace a four-box chain with a single unit, you lose surprisingly little in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e streaming integrated amplifier with slot-in CD drive (all-in-one)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 × 350 W (4 Ω) \/ 2 × 180 W (8 Ω)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreamp:\u003c\/strong\u003e transistor (pure transistor technology)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreamp distortion:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 0.001 %\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreamp signal-to-noise ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt; 100 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eD\/A converter:\u003c\/strong\u003e ESS9028PRO double-quad (4 converters per channel), up to DSD256 \/ PCM 384 kHz \/ 32 bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD drive:\u003c\/strong\u003e slot-in, CD-Audio and CD-R (Red Book)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStreaming (AVM X-STREAM Engine):\u003c\/strong\u003e AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz, HighResAudio, Roon Ready, internet radio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupported formats:\u003c\/strong\u003e WAV, FLAC, ALAC, AIFF, DSD, MP3, AAC, WMA, Ogg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono:\u003c\/strong\u003e MM\/MC switchable, load resistance and capacitance adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalogue inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 × RCA (line level), 1 × balanced XLR, 1 × phono (RCA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigital inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e HDMI (ARC), 1 × S\/PDIF coaxial, 1 × optical, USB-A for storage media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e speakers A \u0026amp; B (two pairs), pre-out RCA and XLR (regulated), line-out, 1 × coaxial and 1 × optical digital, 2 × trigger out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone output:\u003c\/strong\u003e on the front, output impedance 24 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork:\u003c\/strong\u003e LAN 100 Mbit\/s, Wi-Fi 2.4 \/ 5 GHz (802.11 a\/b\/g\/n\/ac)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperation:\u003c\/strong\u003e RC X App (iOS\/Android); wireless remote RC 3 \/ RC 8 or RC 9 \/ RC 10 available as an option\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHousing:\u003c\/strong\u003e brushed aluminium, silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × H × D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 430 × 122 × 350 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower consumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e standby \u0026lt; 0.5 W, max. 1000 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 years, 4 years with online registration with the manufacturer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included:\u003c\/strong\u003e unit, 2 Wi-Fi\/Bluetooth antennas, power cable, gloves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the Evolution CS 3.3 and the CS 5.3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower, converter, connections and streaming are identical, both deliver 2 × 350 watts at 4 Ω. The difference lies solely in the preamp: the CS 3.3 relies on a transistor preamp (neutral and precise), the CS 5.3 on a tube preamp (warmer, rounder). Which suits you better is a matter of taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs a remote control included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. In the box you'll find the unit, two Wi-Fi\/Bluetooth antennas, a power cable and gloves.

With 2 × 350 watts at 4 Ω and 2 × 180 watts at 8 Ω, the CS 3.3 brings enough reserves for demanding speakers and larger rooms. Via outputs A and B you can run two pairs; if both run at the same time, each speaker should have at least 8 Ω.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the AVM Evolution CS 3.3 from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an authorised AVM partner in Wädenswil – with a seasoned specialist team and roots in the industry going back to the 1990s – we'll tell you honestly whether the CS 3.3 or the CS 5.3 suits your taste better.
