The Audio Research DSi-200 is a high-end integrated amplifier designed to deliver exceptional sound quality and versatility to audiophiles. The DSi-200 incorporates the latest technology and design principles from Audio Research, a respected brand in the audio industry known for its iconic tube amplifiers.The DSi-200 features a dual-mono construction, with separate power supplies and circuits for the left and right channels to ensure optimal performance and noise reduction. It also employs a high-current, low-feedback circuit topology that eliminates many of the negative traits commonly associated with feedback designs, producing a clear, natural, and energetic sound.At the heart of the amplifier are premium-grade components, including custom-made vacuum tubes, high-quality capacitors, and precision-wound transformers. The DSi-200 also supports high-resolution digital sources, including DSD (Direct Stream Digital), making it a versatile option for modern audio setups.Some key features and specifications of the Audio Research DSi-200 include:- Integrated amplifier with 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms- Dual-mono construction with separate power supplies and circuits- Custom-made vacuum tubes: 6H30/6C45 in the output stages and ECC82/12AX7 in the preamp stages- High-quality capacitors, including COG and polypropylene- Precision-wound transformers, custom-made for Audio Research- High-current, low-feedback circuit topology- Fully balanced design with XLR inputs and outputs (in addition to RCA connectors)- MM/ MC phono stage with selectable loading and capacitance- Headphone amplifier with high-quality 1/4" jack- Digital inputs: USB, AES/EBU, coaxial, and optical (supports up to 384 kHz/32-bit and DSD)- RCA and XLR inputs for analog sources- Gold-plated relays for input selection and muting- Polished nickel-plated front panel with a custom-designed display using top-quality SMD LEDs and a clear acrylic faceplate- Detachable AC cord with a high-quality, attractive C14 connector that fits directly into the amplifier's rear chassis without a plastic enclosure to get in the wayThe Audio Research DSi-200 represents a marriage of high-end audio design principles and modern technology. Its powerful yet nuanced sound, combined with its exceptional build quality and versatile features, make it a true masterpiece in the world of hi-fi amplifiers.
