{"product_id":"moon250iv2bl","title":"MOON 250i V2 Integrated Amplifier, Black","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe MOON 250i V2 is a purely analogue stereo integrated amplifier from Simaudio with a built-in MM phono stage, delivering 50 watts per channel and designed as the compact heart of a hi-fi system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the MOON 250i V2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it focuses on the essentials: the shortest, cleanest possible path from source signal to output stage, with no digital detours whatsoever. On paper, 50 watts sounds modest, but thanks to a current-stable circuit and a high damping factor it feels like a lot more – at 4 ohms, output doubles to 100 watts. An MM phono stage is already built in, plus four line inputs for CD players, streamers and more. That makes the 250i V2 the complete control centre of your analogue chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA transparent, calm sound with tight bass control and a precisely drawn soundstage. The 250i V2 doesn't colour the sound and doesn't push itself forward – it passes the music on exactly as it was recorded. Thanks to its current delivery, it also drives more demanding speakers confidently and without harshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the 250i V2 for – and who is it not for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for anyone looking for an honest, purely analogue amplifier with a phono input – a long-lasting base that can always be extended with an external DAC or streamer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonest take: if you expect streaming, a DAC and app control in one chassis, this isn't for you – the 250i V2 is deliberately purely analogue. In that case, a streaming amplifier like the MOON Ace is worth a look. And for very large, power-hungry speakers in big rooms, a few extra watts wouldn't hurt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA timeless, uncomplicated integrated amplifier that makes MOON's virtues affordable: purely analogue, clean, controlled – and with phono on board. In Black it looks especially understated. We at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil will tell you honestly whether its 50 watts suit your speakers and your room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the trade press says\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"This is a truly brilliant amp that will drop into a host of systems and delight in all of them and the result is an easy Best Buy.\" – AVForums, 9\/10, \"Best Buy\" (2023).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e purely analogue stereo integrated amplifier with MM phono stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput power (stereo, 8 Ω):\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 W per channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput power (stereo, 4 Ω):\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 W per channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 Hz – 100 kHz (+0 \/ −3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignal-to-noise ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e 101 dB at full power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalogue inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4× line (RCA), 1× phono (MM), 1× media-in (3.5 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11 kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDamping factor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt; 200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × H × D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 42.9 × 8.9 × 36.6 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty (MOON Switzerland):\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250i V2, power cable, CRM-3 remote control, manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the MOON 250i V2's 50 watts enough?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor most living rooms and speakers, yes.
