The PASSION IA350A is an integrated amplifier with built-in DAC from YBA, part of the Passion lineage, built with substantial output power. The PASSION IA350A brings YBA's more accomplished current engineering to a complete integrated chassis.

Key specs that matter

One balanced XLR input is provided. Output power is 115W into 8 ohms, rising to 160W into 4 ohms. Frequency response spans 20Hz to 20,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio exceeds 95dB, with total harmonic distortion plus noise under 0.03%. At 430 x 380 x 108mm and 15.4kg, the PASSION IA350A represents a substantial integrated amplifier commitment reflecting YBA's more accomplished current Passion-lineage engineering.

Sound and use context

Expect an accomplished amplification character reflecting the strong over-95dB signal-to-noise figure, 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

YBA's own Passion IA350 MKII offers an updated version with improved signal-to-noise performance within the same broader catalogue.
