Technics SU-R1000: Stereo Integrated Amplifier

Technics SU-R1000 Stereo Integrated Amplifier The SU-R1000 is a Reference Class Stereo Integrated Amplifier packed with advanced features designed to deliver exceptional audio quality. It incorporates cutting-edge technologies such as the JENO Engine for Jitter Elimination and Noise-shaping Optimization, ADCT (Active Distortion Cancelling Technology), LAPC (Load Adaptive Phase Calibration), and an Advanced Speed Silent Power Supply. Additionally, it boasts Four Independent Power Supply Units to minimize interference and ensure a high signal-to-noise ratio. The amplifier’s input and output terminals are meticulously selected for their high quality, with speaker terminals capable of accommodating extra-large diameter speaker cables. It features Neutrik-manufactured analogue balance and PHONO XLR input terminals exclusively for MC, along with analogue input terminals made of gold-plated, machined brass parts. The front panel is adorned with an iconic, large dual-needle meter, and the volume dial and selector knob are crafted from solid aluminum blocks for durability and precision. Technological advancements such as the JENO Engine ensure optimal sound quality by eliminating jitter across frequencies. The ADCT technology removes distortion in the power output stage, enhancing speaker performance. The Advanced Speed Silent Power Supply provides stable voltage and current, while the Four Independent Power Supply Units minimize interference for superior audio clarity. The amplifier’s high-grade Digital/Analog I/O Circuit ensures pure signal transmission, with features like a full-discrete circuit design and completely balanced transmission in the phono input and XLR input sections. The chassis is built for high rigidity, with a double-deck separated structure and steel shield plates to suppress enclosure vibration and enhance signal quality. Additionally, the Intelligent Phono EQ utilizes DSP technology for precise sound adjustment, including functions like Accurate EQ Curve, Crosstalk Canceller, and PHONO Response Optimizer to optimize sound quality from analogue sources.
