high weight of the 60i) and highly-specified
output circuitry.
future-proof
Although your 60i is an integrated
amplifier, a simple modification (which can
be arranged by your retailer) splits your
60i into separate preamplifier and power
amplifier sections. This allows you to
bi-amp, using a second power amplifier
(such as our 60P or 100P) or insert a signal
processor between the preamplifier and
power amplifier sections.
The 60i – an integrated amplifier with
uncompromised hi-performance
low-distortion capacitors that must
be used.
straight line technology
In the power amplifier section, a feedback
circuit eliminates DC offset voltage and
allows the signal path to be direct coupled
without any capacitors. This arrangement,
which we at TAG McLaren Audio call
‘Straight Line Technology’, is easy to
describe but not easy to realise. The design
has taken our expert engineers years to
perfect.
supersonic high-frequency
response
In order to reproduce high frequencies,
the 60i is constructed using highly-rated,
high-precision components. The circuit has
been painstakingly designed to avoid any
possibility of signals picking up
interference and to minimise the effects
of intermodulation.
sophisticated muting
The 60i has a sophisticated muting system,
which stops you hearing loud, annoying
switching noises and protects the amplifier
and loudspeakers.
substantial power
The 60i’s power rating of 60 watts is very
conservative, as the 60i can typically
provide 72 watts into 8
Ω
,
115 watts into
4
Ω
, and 150 watts into 2
Ω
for a short
period. Performance of this calibre is
essential to drive even the least sensitive
loudspeakers without distortion, and has
been achieved through the use of a very
large power supply (which accounts for the
