The SU-R1000 is an accomplished integrated amplifier with phono stage and DAC from Technics, its class D power amplifiers built using the proprietary JENO Engine technology, ensuring no digital signal distortion for transparent, balanced sound. The SU-R1000 brings Technics's most storied Japanese engineering to a comprehensive, digitally-optimised integrated-amplification format.
Key specs that matter
One balanced plus one balanced phono input, and two single-ended plus one single-ended phono input, are provided, alongside a built-in D/A converter. Input sensitivity is 200mV, with input impedance at 22,000 ohms on both connections. Output power reaches 150W into 8 ohms, rising to 300W into 4 ohms. Frequency response spans a wide 5Hz to 80,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. At 30 x 191 x 459mm and 22.8kg, the SU-R1000 maintains a substantial integrated-amplifier chassis reflecting the JENO Engine's digital-distortion-free class D architecture.
Sound and use context
Expect a transparent, balanced sound reflecting the JENO Engine's elimination of digital signal distortion, with the built-in phono stage and DAC covering both analogue and digital sources within a single, comprehensively equipped chassis.
Pairing
The comprehensive balanced-and-unbalanced phono and line inputs, plus the built-in DAC, accommodate an extensive source collection without needing additional components.
Alternatives
Technics's own broader Grand Class integrated-amplifier catalogue offers related alternatives within the same considered engineering philosophy.
