The IDA-9 is a NuPrime Audio integrated amplifier that has its own DAC on board. The brand concentrates on efficient class D amplifier technology. It belongs to the company's IDA line of integrated amplifiers with an onboard converter and combines substantial output with a compact chassis.

Key specs that matter

Output power is 200 W per channel into 8 ohms and 250 W into 4 ohms. The rated bandwidth extends from 10 Hz to 50 000 Hz, and distortion is quoted at 0.005%. The only analogue input is single-ended. The case measures 55 x 235 x 281 mm and weighs 4 kg, so the chassis is very small and light given its output.

Pairing

With only one analogue input, the IDA-9 suits a one-source system unless external switching is added.

Alternatives

NuPrime Audio's IDA-8 sits below this model in the brand's integrated amplifier range.
