The FLS 10 is an integrated amplifier with built-in DAC from Audia Flight, sitting above the FL THREE S with considerably greater output power and an exceptional damping factor. The FLS 10 represents Audia Flight's more accomplished current statement in integrated amplifier engineering.
Key specs that matter
Two balanced XLR inputs and three single-ended inputs are provided. Input impedance is 47,000 ohms on both connections. Output power is a substantial 200W into 8 ohms, rising to 380W into 4 ohms - considerably more than the FL THREE S's 100W/160W. Gain is a high 90dBu. Frequency response spans an exceptionally wide 0.3Hz to 500,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio is a strong 110dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise under 0.05%. Damping factor exceeds an extraordinary 650. At 450 x 180 x 440mm and 36kg, the FLS 10 represents a substantial integrated amplifier commitment.
Sound and use context
Expect exceptionally transparent, tightly controlled amplification reflecting the extraordinary over-650 damping factor combined with the substantial 380W-into-4-ohms output, representing Audia Flight's more accomplished current engineering standards.
Pairing
The extraordinary over-650 damping factor suits demanding loudspeaker loads with excellent bass control, and the built-in DAC covers digital sources directly.
Alternatives
Audia Flight's own FLS9 offers a related model with an added phono stage at somewhat reduced power within the same broader catalogue.
