About Onkyo A-9150

Integrated Stereo Amplifier
Take Music Further with True Fidelity

Building on acclaim for the award-winning A-9010, Onkyo again raises the bar for musicality in the entry class with its A-9150 Integrated Stereo Amplifier. Unique technologies coalesce around a refined amplification system to deliver outstanding transient response, superb dynamics, lifelike soundstaging, and nuanced articulation of your favorite analog or digital music.

Key to this sense of realism is Discrete SpectraModule, which boasts a slew rate of more than 500 V/micros for flat linearity up to megahertz bandwidth. Rediscover the vitality of analog with MM/MC phono input served by dedicated equalizers on a separate circuit board, with custom head-amp operating in discrete configuration for MC signals.

Listeners with big CD libraries will discover new life in the format with AKM’s premium 768 kHz/32-bit DAC (AK4452) enhanced by DIDRC Filter, an original circuit technology that cleanses signals of high-frequency noise. Backed by 70 years’ experience in hi-fi design, the A-9150 invites you inside the energy of every musical performance.

Refined Power Amplification
In order to deliver a clear and comfortable audio image, it’s vital that sounds of different frequencies arrive at the listening position simultaneously.

Power amplification circuits feature original topology that’s carefully tuned for phase accuracy, wide-spectrum signal reproduction, and natural transient response.

Fitted with hand-selected audio-grade parts, the amplifier contributes to lifelike and involving sound quality.

Nuanced Musicality Delivered with Discrete SpectraModule
Discrete SpectraModule boasts a slew rate of over 500 V/micros, significantly higher than competitive products that use a standard IC chip.

High-voltage performance enables flat linearity into the megahertz range for full-bandwidth signal reproduction. This is important not only for natural transients expressing the nuances in music with freshness and vitality, but also for accurate definition of instruments ranged around a larger and more realistic soundstage.

Dedicated MM/MC Phono Circuit Board
The A-9150 makes your records sound better than ever. A gold-plated phono input supports signals from either MM or MC cartridges fitted to your choice of turntable.

Separate phono circuit board has dedicated equalizers served by a top-quality customized head amp, which operates in discrete configuration for MC signals. Together with analog power amplification, this high-grade phono input design expresses the depth and vitality of music on vinyl.

Customized High-Current Transformer and Custom Audio-Grade Capacitors
Current has great influence on sound quality. High current is required for a better grip on the speaker transducers, improving control and accuracy.

A customized high-output transformer and two huge custom capacitors inside the A-9150 deliver current through discrete output-stage transistors that are kept cool by an aluminum heat sink.

Speakers react instantly, with throw-range precisely controlled for accurate articulation even through dynamic and complex musical passages.

DIDRC Filter and Hi-Grade DAC for Natural Sound
Distortion in the ultra-high-frequency spectrum can have a noticeable impact on the character of audible sound. Even the best D/A converters introduce some noise to the signal, and that noise is amplified, distorting the sound you hear.

DIDRC Filter completely erases ultra-high-frequency noise. Performance is optimized for digital music with an undistorted frequency response extending far above the range of audibility.

Combined with a premium 768 kHz/32-bit DAC, you can enjoy a greater sense of realism from digital sources, with none of the unnatural “synthesized” feeling sometimes produced by digital processing.

Solid Build with High-grade Terminals
A peek under the hood tells you what to expect from the A-9150. Held in place by a flat chassis that tames resonance, the digital audio board is isolated from the analog circuitry.

L/R channels are symmetrical to equalize signal path-lengths and minimize stereo playback errors. Coaxial digital inputs, phono input, speaker posts, and RCA line inputs are gold-plated and of excellent quality.

Finished with an aluminum front panel and volume control, the A-9150 presents as a component built to last.

With unmatched experience in every facet of music creation, embedded deep in the Yamaha DNA is an intimate understanding of the emotional essence of music and music creation. Conveying the artists' emotion through our Hi-Fi equipment is a fundamental component of the Yamaha design philosophy. >Toroidal Transformer Usually reserved for flagship Hi-Fi components, the A-S1200 benefits from the technical proficiency and absolute musicality of a toroidal transformer. Combined with an array of high-end Hi-Fi features and components, the toroidal transformer assists in ensuring the musical emotion is conveyed to the listener. Gorgeous Level Meters The level meters are both a nod to the nostalgic era of Hi-Fi, while simultaneously demonstrating the return of pure Hi-Fi for today's discerning enthusiast. Visually presenting the dynamics and pulse of the music, the level meters imbue a warm feeling through their softly illuminated LEDs. Openness An open sound stage presents the listener with a musical experience that is similar to being at the live performance. True Hi-Fi delivers this openness in the sound, transforming the listeners' musical experience, bringing them closer to the artist. Thick Wires for Ground Connection Our low Impedance concept, aided by the thick wires for ground connection, is critical for componentry adopting the badge of premium Hi-Fi. This Yamaha design concept begins in our premium Hi-Fi components with the A-S1200, helping to present an open, natural sound stage, bringing the artist and listener closer together. Original Speaker Terminals Cut directly from pure brass, the luxurious speaker terminals comfortably fit the human hand for effortless tightening, achieving a highly secure connection. Groove Connection with the music is achieved with the underlying groove and rhythm. A true representation of the music lets the listener feel the groove, and therefore not just hear the music but feel the story behind the music. Mechanical Ground Concept The A-S1200 adopts a Mechanical Ground Concept, inherited from both the A-S2200 and A-S3200. The concept begins with the bolts of the feet welded directly to the main chassis, followed with the large heat sink, power transformer and block capacitors also directly bolted to the chassis. Through this design, unwanted vibration is avoided, achieving expressive and rhythmic bass, presenting the 'Groove' of the music to the listener. Chrome-Plated Iron Feet Completing the rigidity of the amplifier are the heavy-duty chrome-plated iron feet.

About Pioneer Home Audio SCLX704

Equipped with the 6th generation of Direct Energy HD Amplifier, the SC-LX704 is worthy of being your home cinema's centerpiece, and an ideal combination for Pioneer's flagship universal disc player. Two ES9026PRO DACs ensure quality audio reproduction, while MCACC Pro Auto Room Tuning technology with Full Band Phase Control brings out the best from 3D surround sounds of IMAX Enhanced, Dolby Atmos, and DTS:X. Enjoy rich, vibrant sound with PQLS jitterless transmission. The new Audio Exclusive Mode and AV Direct Mode enhance detailed sound reproduction by turning off the unused functions to eliminate unwanted noise. Direct Energy HD Class D Switching Amplifier Continuously evolving throughout the years, Pioneer's Direct Energy HD Amp has now reached the 6th generation. New power coils are adopted for the ideal speaker drive, as well as new custom film capacitors co-developed with Shinyei Capacitor for the ultimate sound. The power supply and patterning has been developed through repeated tuning. Also, the entire transmission path from the pre stage to the power stage has been changed to balanced circuitry, to transmit noise-free high-quality signals to the power stage. MCACC Pro Auto Room Tuning MCACC Pro, the pinnacle of Pioneer's auto room tuning technology, analyzes the phase and group delay characteristics to precisely control phase differences between speakers. MCACC Pro corrects phase differences in all ranges and all channels, from phase difference in the original audio material to the sound emitted from the speakers. Required microphone included. IMAX Enhanced MODE IMAX digitally re-mastered content for the home environment is created to provide the same sharp 4K HDR images and powerful sound just as the filmmaker intended. Pioneer Elite's IMAX Mode is meticulously optimized to play digitally remastered content to deliver the best viewing and listening experience on Earth. ESS 384 kHz/32-bit DAC Two 384 kHz/32-bit ESS DACs (ES9026PRO), same as the ones used for Pioneers PD-70AE SACD player, are used for all channels. With extremely precise D/A conversion and high S/N ratio, the DAC provides powerful sound full of rich details. Dolby Atmos You can reproduce object-oriented sound in smooth, curving movements, or the realistic three-dimensional movement overhead by the top speakers. DTS:X Can automatically adapt the audio to the existing channels and speaker system, no specific speaker layout is required. Full Band Phase Control Pioneer's Phase Control technology effectively eliminates phase lag and significantly improves the multi-channel sound without any extra operation. Furthermore, The Full Band Phase Control technology focuses on the group delay in the speaker network filter, and adjusts the phase of each unit as well as the group delay for each speaker. Multi-range speakers gain the sound coherence of full-range speakers, while retaining the wide frequency range advantage. In an environment where the phase of all units and all channels are precisely controlled, a remarkably clear sound location with a surrounding feel is achieved. In combination with MCACC Pro, the ideal multi-channel reproduction environment can be created, which faithfully replicates object audio and the intention of the original content developer. PQFA Jitterless Sound Processing for Network/USB With PQFA (Precision Quartz File-based Audio), clocks are available for each stage of input, digital signal processing, and D/A conversion, and the shorter path prevents jitter from occurring. Additionally, a high-precision clock IC (OSC) is used to realise D/A conversion with significantly less jitter. PQLS Jitterless Sound Transmission With the precision quartz controller on the AV receiver, Precision Quartz Lock System (PQLS) eliminates distortion caused by timing errors. It controls the amount of audio signals from the AV receiver to the Pioneer universal disc player connected via HDMI, giving the best possible digital-to-analog conversion. Audio Exclusive Mode Interference from video signals is eliminated by turning off the video signal path via HDMI. You can enjoy detailed sound, full of spatial feel. AV Direct Mode The feature turns off the network functions to suppress digital noise within the AV receiver, and improves sound quality for analog playback, digital input, HDMI playback etc. Mode 1 turns off the network module operation clock, while Mode 2 shuts down the network power completely for more superior sound. Works with Alexa Works with Alexa makes you control SC-LX704 with your voice via Alexa-enabled device such as the Amazon Echo, to play, pause, and skip titles or control the volume. You can enjoy the music via streaming service such like Amazon Music by selecting song title, artist name, release year, and genre. Ready for 4K HDR entertainment Enjoy support for HDR (High Dynamic Range) video including HDR10, HLG, Dolby Vision, and BT.2020. The 4:4:4 color space is also supported. Six HDMI inputs, ARC-ready MAIN OUT, and SUB OUT pass 4K/60p and HDR video from player to compatible TV and projector and all terminals are HDCP 2.2 compliant. High-Performance AC Cable Included detachable OFC power cable contributes to superior sound. Anti-Standing Wave Insulators Features a special form with no parallel sides inside to prevent cavity resonance. This makes the sound localisation, tone, and scale clearer, while also contributing to seamless connection between the channels and improved response to quick sound.
