Magnat MA900 High-End Amplifier with Bluetooth – Black

The combination of tube and transistor technology has a long tradition at Magnat. It combines optimum sound with impressive performance. The MA 900 scores highly with its technical values, extensive configuration, and minimalist design.

Full-power performance – 200 watts x 2: Selected and burned-in ECC 81 high-end tubes amplify fine input signals and generate the inimitable tube sound, while the power transistors provide a solid continuous output of 200 watts per channel. The pulse power reaches 320 watts.

Connectivity is extensive: 5 analogue low-level inputs, a 3.5 mm front input, 4 digital inputs, and a phono input for MM and MC systems. Tablets, smartphones, and computers can also connect via Bluetooth with aptX HD for optimum sound quality.

The combination of tubes in the preamplifier with powerful transistors turns the MA 900 into a hybrid amplifier, a rare but classic Magnat product category. Preselected and burned-in tubes ensure perfectly compatible pairs.

All of this is housed in a sturdy metal case with solid aluminum front panel and controls. The dual-line display lights up individually for input selection, and the tubes emit a soft glow. Everything can also be controlled via the supplied system remote.
