Eversolo presented a universal audio product Eversolo Play CD Edition - a network amplifier that also combines a streamer, digital-to-analog converter, CD transport and MM/MC phono preamplifier in one case. This is definitely a "Swiss knife for sound".

Mark Levinson has introduced a new 600 series, which includes the Mark Levinson No.626 preamplifier, the Mark Levinson No.632 stereo power amplifier and the Mark Levinson No.631 mono power amplifiers. Sales of the equipment will begin in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The Danish company Gryphon Audio is releasing the fifth generation of the iconic Antileon power amplifier – Antileon Revelation. The announcement was prepared for two anniversaries of the company - the 30th anniversary of the Antileon amplifier line and the 40th anniversary of the Gryphon company itself.

Line Magnetic has introduced a new single-ended integrated tube amplifier Line Magnetic LM-300IA, based on the iconic 300B triodes. The device is handcrafted and equipped with output transformers and a bias regulator with a precise built-in current meter.

Canor Audio has introduced the hybrid integrated amplifier Canor Virtus A3. The model uses the "dual mono" topology, a vacuum tube preamplifier on a pair of E88CC tubes, is equipped with a built-in digital-to-analog converter, a phono preamplifier and has a 1.3-inch touch LCD screen.

The SMSL company presented the SMSL VMV A1 Pro power amplifier - using lnfineon's latest GaN FET transistors, with a switching frequency of up to 1 MHz. Such unique circuitry guarantees, according to the company, absolutely natural sound and up to 400 W of output power.

Rotel DX-5 is a compact model, but despite its dimensions, the device does not use digital amplification and operates in class A/B, reaching 2 x 33 W into 4 Ohm load and 2 x 25 W into 8 Ohm speakers. The new product is equipped with a power supply based on a powerful toroidal transformer created by Rotel itself, and high-current transistors.

Technical Audio Devices Laboratories has introduced the TAD-M2500TX stereo power amplifier – the device sports a completely rethought circuit design, uses upgraded power transformers and a redesigned machined aluminum chassis (machined from a 90 kg solid block of aluminum).

A very powerful (2 x 400 W into 8 Ohm and 2 x 400 W into 4 Ohm loudspeakers) integrated amplifier JAVA HI-FI Carbon Double Shot is presented. The model uses a fully balanced dual-mono configuration with an LDR pre-amp stage and GaN FET power amp stage.

The Wattson Audio Madison AMPLIFIER integrated amplifier is presented – created in cooperation with CH Precision. The model has an input impedance of 100 kOhms and operates in the widest frequency band from 1 to 400,000 Hz. With a 120 dB signal-to-noise ratio and distortion of less than 0.05%, the output power reaches 2 x 50 W per 8 ohm speaker and increases to 2 x 100 W per 2 ohm load.

Soulnote M-3X is a new monoblock power amplifier from a famous Japanese company. The model will replace the Soulnote M-3 amplifier and will offer twice as much current (a 1,600 VA power transformer is used), which will provide significantly better control of the acoustics.

At the upcoming AXPONA show (April 11-13, 2025) in Schaumberg, IL, Audio Research will introduce six new audio components that represent the culmination of 55 years of experience.

Japanese corporation Accuphase has introduced a powerful but compact integrated amplifier Accuphase E-3000 – the new model will replace the E-280 in the company's model range.

Rega has introduced the seventh generation of the Brio series integrated amplifier - Rega Brio Mk7. The amp, like its predecessors, is housed in a compact case and offers a power of 2 x 50 W at 8 Ohm load or 2 x 73 W at 6 Ohm. "On board" along with a headphone amplifier (with a 3.5 mm minijack post) and a phono preamplifier for working with both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) pickup cartridges, a digital-to-analog converter module has also appeared.

The tube stereo power amplifier Pearl Acoustics 170 SE should go on sale only at the end of 2025 – but the veil of secrecy over the device has already been lifted. We are waiting for a dual mono, single ended design power amp with 0 dB global feedback. The device is based on the inexpensive PSVANE "Horizon" KT150 tubes – which delivers excellent holography, as well as good bass and detail without a significant loss in output power.

A component system is the alpha and omega of a High-End system, and a stereo power amplifier is its heart. It is the power amp that is responsible for revealing the talents of the acoustic systems, controls the speakers and forms the foundation of the system's sound signature. Our new selection contains eight of the latest exceptionally powerful extra-class amplifiers - from High-End devices to the stunning Ultra High-End echelon. So, how to choose an amplifier that can handle any speakers is a solved problem.

German company T+A has introduced a stylish integrated amplifier T+A Symphonia with arrows indicators of the gain level. The model offers a full set of analog and digital inputs, is equipped with a built-in digital-to-analog converter, a full-fledged network streamer and has a built-in phono preamplifier.

Serbian company Dayens has released an ascetic stereo power amplifier Dayens Ecstasy IV Slim – the model uses output stages on two pairs of Japanese transistors and provides (despite the compact slim case) 110 W per channel when working on loudspeakers with an impedance of 8 Ohms (2 x 160 W at 4 Ohms).

Cayin has released an update to its well-known integrated amplifier model – the Cayin MT-35 MK3. In addition to three RCA inputs, the amp received a wireless streaming module Bluetooth (AAC, aptX HD and LDAC) with a fairly powerful built-in digital-to-analog converter based on the ES9018K2M Sabre32 chip.
