NuPrime ST10 Reference LE Power Amplifier - Black - Mint - REDUCED

Mint condition NuPrime ST10 Reference LE power amplifier. Original owner. Purchased about a year ago. Switched over to active monitors 6 months after so this unit has very little use.

PayPal Fees and Insured Shipping included at my asking price.

Will only ship to lower 48 and verified PayPal address.

The ST-10 amplifier is NuPrime's Reference LE (near-reference) power amplifier for listeners who require a reference-class amplifier at a somewhat lesser power rating of a still very muscular 2 x 150W at 8 ohms and 4 ohms. NuPrime's sonic character stands well apart from - and, indeed, above - the soft, cushy sound we often associate with most tubed amplification and the dry, clinically edgy sound we often associate with solid-state and switching technology. The "LE" of Reference LE designates near-reference-class performance. The fourth generation (V4 amplifier module) of this patented amplifier design outperforms its predecessor in several aspects, including lowering the noise floor by an astounding 20dB and elevating the output stage to 85 percent efficiency. The V4 amp module also offers shortened circuit pathways, resulting in a 20 percent improvement in through-put, along with improved reliability in a no-load condition and short circuit protection, increased output current drive capability for low impedance speakers, increased switching frequency to 600 KHz and an improved musical sampling rate, and improved S/N ratio and dynamic range. The ST-10 boasts a new linear power supply with a high-efficiency toroidal transformer. Reduced high-frequency noise and strengthened low-frequency performance are two of its virtues. Signal path avoids cross-linking capacitors, thus achieving a frequency response at DC level for pure musical enjoyment. The ST-10 incorporates enhanced even-order harmonic (H2) circuitry resembling the most attractive features of tube-amp sound without its drawbacks and limitations. The results of all of this technology include a vast soundstage, wide, lightning-fast dynamics, plus ultra-low distortion and noise. Music emerges from a pristine background, with delicate details and nuances intact.
