The Dayton Audio HTA100BT is a stereo integrated amplifier distinguished by its hybrid design. It does feature a Class AB power stage as well as a tube preamp stage. A rare design that borrows from modern amplification technology while retaining the typical warm tones of tube circuits to rediscover all the fun of these sounds in a modern environment that can easily be connected to a recent High-Fidelity installation.
The HTA100BT stereo amplifier delivers the roundness and richness of tube amplifiers while taking advantage of state-of-the-art connectivity, including not only USB, Bluetooth 5 and SPDIF input, but also AUX and phono inputs, to be fully prepared for any home integration scenario.
A beautiful retro design with front-mounted surface-mounted tubes and woofers, and a durable aluminum body, the HTA100BT is a device with strong visual character that’s sure to add style to your audio installation.
Its front-end interface brings together a variety of options to make it easier to use, while cleverly playing on the contrast of different elements to keep them readable and easy to handle. In addition to two VU meters dedicated to each stereo channel, there is an ON/OFF button, an active source LED indicator, a source selector button, two rotary potentiometers dedicated to bass and treble equalization, and a third larger potentiometer dedicated to volume control.
With an output power of 50 watts per channel into 4 ohms, the HTA100BT offers the ideal power headroom to suit the needs of virtually any home audio listening system.
In addition to the usual connectivity options for a modern integrated amplifier (coaxial SPDIF, optical) that allow you to connect the device to all your digital sources (DAC, TV, games console, etc.), the HTA100BT has extensive connectivity options designed to make life much easier for audiophiles. equipped with devices using various technologies.
Compatible with Bluetooth 5 (SBC & AAC) provides high-quality wireless streaming that is easy to set up with the most common wireless audio sources (smartphone, tablet, laptop, streamer).
A dedicated phono input allows you to directly connect your turntable to the HTA100BT, which will process the analog signal directly through the tube preamp.
Finally, the USB input allows you to play FLAC, MP3, WMA, WAV and APE audio files stored on an external device such as a hard drive or USB drive.
On the output side, in addition to the speaker terminals dedicated to the amplifier output, the HTA100BT has a summed line output, very practical for connecting an active subwoofer and achieving a full 2.1 system. The latter is directly connected to the output of the pre-amp stage.
Attention, before connecting this amplifier, you must set the power selector according to your electrical network (220V or 110V).
