Send

The First Watt Aleph J is a high-performance integrated amplifier designed by renowned audio engineer Nelson Pass. It is part of the First Watt line of audio equipment, which is known for its simplicity, innovation, and exceptional sound quality.The Aleph J features a single-ended Class A amplification circuit, which provides a warm, detailed, and full-bodied sound. The amp delivers 16 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 32 watts into 4 ohms, making it ideal for use with a wide range of loudspeakers.One of the unique features of the Aleph J is its use of bipolar transistors instead of operational amplifiers (op-amps) in the input and feedback stages. This approach eliminates the need for op-amp buffers and provides a more direct and transparent sound.In terms of connectivity, the Aleph J has a single pair of stereo RCA inputs, as well as a front-panel headphone output. It also features a useful output mapping feature, which allows you to select which speaker outputs are active for mono or bi-amping setups.Overall, the First Watt Aleph J is a premium integrated amplifier that offers exceptional sound quality, simplicity, and build quality. It is a great choice for audiophiles who value the natural, dynamic, and engaging sound signatures associated with Class A amplification.
