The I25 DAC is an integrated amplifier with built-in DAC from Primare, sitting above the I15 series with considerably greater output power. The I25 DAC brings Primare's more accomplished current engineering to a substantial integrated chassis.
Key specs that matter
Five single-ended inputs are provided. Output power is a substantial 100W into 8 ohms, rising to 200W into 4 ohms - considerably more than the I15's 60W/100W. At 430 x 106 x 420mm and 11kg, the I25 DAC represents a more substantial commitment than the I15 series, reflecting Primare's more accomplished current engineering.
Sound and use context
Expect the accurate, minimalist character Primare's broader Scandinavian catalogue is celebrated for, with the substantial 200W-into-4-ohms output providing capable dynamic performance, with the built-in DAC covering digital sources directly.
Pairing
The built-in DAC covers digital sources directly without needing a separate outboard converter.
Alternatives
Primare's own I35 offers Primare's more accomplished current statement within the integrated amplifier catalogue.
