D’Agostino Momentum integrated amplifier















Industry awards and new Momentum integrated amp highlight D’Agostino LLC plans for 2014 International CES

At International CES, January 7-10, 2014, in Venetian Hotel suite 29-223, Dan D’Agostino Master Audio Systems will be debuting its new Momentum integrated amplifier and celebrating many recent honors from industry publications and organizations. The company invites and encourages CES attendees to visit the Venetian suite to audition its latest products.

The Momentum integrated amplifier brings many of the technologies from the Momentum amplifiers and preamplifier to a broader market. From the front, the integrated amp closely resembles with Momentum preamp, with the same illuminated indicator dial inspired by Swiss watches. Like the preamp, the integrated amp offers six balanced XLR inputs. It also continues the preamp’s bypassable tone controls for bass and treble, so the sound can be adjusted to suit the recording, the room or the other equipment in the system, all without affecting fundamental audio quality and musicality.

Using the same essential design concepts as the original Momentum amplifiers, the Momentum integrated amp delivers 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms, both rated conservatively. Like the originals, the integrated draws less than 1 watt of power in standby mode, and employs 1% metal-film resistors, 69 MHz output transistors
