Other features

The Rotel A11MKII integrated amplifier offers the perfect combination of power and style for music lovers looking to enhance their listening experience. Built around a linear power stage equipped with a massive toroidal power transformer produced by Rotel, the A11MKII delivers a power of 50 watts per channel in class A/B into 8 ohms, which rises if the speakers to be driven have an impedance module even more challenging. The power supply stage and the careful arrangement of the most critical electronic circuits offer a clear physical and electrical separation, to the advantage of reducing background noise and increasing dynamics. The multi-winding transformer provides isolated power to all sensitive low-voltage circuitry, and the high-current output transistors further isolate the signal paths, reducing unwanted distortion. This design supports fast transients and delivers an expressive and realistic musical performance. Both analog and digital sources are supported, as well as the AptX HD Bluetooth receiver. Three line level RCA inputs, MM Phono stage compatible with moving magnet cartridges, coaxial and optical digital inputs. The internal DAC is a 32bit/384KHz Texas Instruments. The equipment also includes a headphone output with dedicated amplifier on the front panel. On the same there are tone controls for bass and treble and channel balance. Supplied, we finally have the remote control that controls the volume in an analogue way, via a motorized potentiometer.

Highlights compared to the previous version Rotel A10:

- 22 new improved components

- New circuitry and signal distribution with front tone controls

- Bluetooth Aptx HD (was AptX only)
