Advance Paris A-i130 NOVA Integrated Amplifier

Arriving May 2026 - Accepting pre-orders now!

The NOVA A-i130 is based on the conviction that nothing replaces the warmth of tubes to reproduce live music.

The ECC81 tube preamplification stage introduces harmonic richness that transistors alone cannot offer, a soundstage depth, a carnal presence to the sound. But uncontrolled heat is not high fidelity. That's why the Class AB amplification section, powered by a 380 VA toroidal transformer, takes over with authority, capturing the most demanding dynamics, controlling the most recalcitrant speakers.  

Downstream, the 4-channel DSP ADAU1452 and the ESS9017S DAC in Quad mode ensure that none of this precision is lost along the way. From tube to speaker: absolute coherence.
