Review: Excellent Amp - This amp is true high end. Sounds amazing.
Review: Way to go Yamaha - I have a really nice Yamaha A-S700 (100W RMS). However, it was not really pushing my B&W 705 S2s. I decided to upgrade to the A-S1200, and it really lights them up even though it has 10Ws less. It really tightened up the bass, improved the soundstage and mines the finest nuances from the highs. I imagine the toroidal power supply, the huge capacitors and the high-current transistors make all the difference in the world. The phono stage really impressed me. I was running a Schittmani with the A-S700 and it improved the sound a little bit. The Phono stage on the A-S1200 totally blows the Schittmani away especially with 180g vinyl. This is a warm sounding amp reminding me of my vintage days, and it is beautiful. The sides are finished in beautiful piano black and the retro VU meters are really cool. Amendment 1: I would like to add that the pre-amp does a real good job of managing the sub-woofer. Yamaha makes no claims in this regard that I am aware of. I simply set the sub to allow the pre-amp to have full control of it and only the deep bass comes through. I just adjust the volume of the sub, and it blends in so well you cannot tell I am running a sub.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a FANTASTIC amp!
*by P***C on March 13, 2023*

I've owned a lot of amps over the years and this one is amazing. Songs that my wife and I have listened to hundreds of times sound like different versions in that there are nuances not heard before. Listening to PJ Harvey, she sounds like she is in the room! Led Zeppelin "Whole Lotta Love" we hear instrumentation not there before! The depth, quality, precision and clarity are unparalleled. Buy this amp! You will be very happy you did! As for the 4-star review that down rated it b/c the volume control doesn't have a light to "see" the volume level, well I have found that listening to the sound level is what best determines how loud or soft the level needs to be.
