Power amp with Bluetooth LDAC
The LEVEL 1 is a compact desktop power amplifier built around a Texas Instruments TPA3255 platform, delivering up to 2×300W output in a footprint closer to a notebook than a traditional amp. It combines Bluetooth 6.0 with LDAC, USB, coaxial, and line inputs, along with speaker, subwoofer, and pre-out connections.
2x 120W 4Ω output with 48v/5a Supplied PSU.
The LEVEL 1 keeps its footprint small without limiting what it can drive. With up to 2×300W output at 4Ω, it handles bookshelf speakers, desktop monitors, and even some floorstanding speakers. The included 48V/5A power supply supports everyday listening, while higher-capacity power can unlock additional headroom if needed.
TI amplification with low distortion
At its core is the Texas Instruments TPA3255 amplifier chip. It uses integrated feedback and high-speed error correction to reduce distortion while maintaining efficiency. The result is stable output with low THD+N and a signal-to-noise ratio around 105dB, preserving detail without adding noise.
Audiophile-grade internal components
The internal layout focuses on stability and signal integrity. A six-layer PCB with thick copper traces supports clean power delivery, while enclosed inductors reduce interference. Capacitors from WIMA, Nichicon, and ELNA are used in key stages to shape a balanced, controlled sound.
Flexible digital and analog inputs
The LEVEL 1 accepts USB, coaxial, line-in, and Bluetooth sources, making it easy to connect a computer, streamer, CD player, or phone. USB supports up to 24-bit/96kHz PCM, giving you a direct path from digital sources without relying on additional converters.
Subwoofer and pre-out expansion
Dedicated subwoofer and pre-out connections allow the amplifier to grow with your system. You can add a powered subwoofer for low-end extension or route the signal to an external power stage. This flexibility supports both simple stereo systems and more layered configurations.
Physical tone controls
Independent bass and treble knobs on the front panel give you direct control over tonal balance. Adjustments are smooth and predictable, letting you fine-tune playback for different recordings, speakers, or listening volumes without digging through menus.
Bluetooth with LDAC support
Bluetooth 6.0 is included for wireless playback, with support for SBC, AAC, and LDAC codecs. LDAC can transmit up to 990 kbps, preserving more detail than standard Bluetooth audio and making wireless listening a practical option for higher-quality sources.
Metal and wood construction
The chassis combines aluminum alloy with real wood panels, giving the amplifier a grounded, tactile presence on a desk or shelf. The materials also help with durability and heat management during extended listening sessions.
High-current external power supply
The included 48V/5A power adapter is designed for stable delivery with low ripple noise. Consistent power supports cleaner output and better dynamic control, especially when driving more demanding speakers.
