T+A elektroakustik HV Series Components


T+A stands for Theory and Application.

I'm keeping this broad and open to T+A's HV Series components (HV = High Voltage),

Which (currently) includes two integrated amplifiers, two multi-source players, preamplifier, amplifier, power supply, and SACD/CDP/DAC.

Creating this thread for owners to share their impressions, findings, thoughts, experiences, and questions about their HV components. Comparisons to other T+A Series products are also welcome.

Is the T+A PA 3100 HV integrated amplifier hot to touch?   How much ventilation does it require?

@hgeifman   The 3100 runs fairly warm. You can touch it, but you will not want to leave your hand on it for a length of time. I have it in the console opening for a center channel speaker with about an inch of free space above it. 

For the U.S. market it comes with an Energy Saver feature that can be enabled or disabled. More stringent jurisdictions have it enabled only.

I have left it on fully (not standby) for a number of weeks (multiple times) without any issues.
We sold a PA 3000 integrated to a gentleman with a set of Personas.

The greatest compliment to how great the amp is was how close it came to real music.

We played a piano concerto on the system then compaired that to his Steinway. Very close to the real thing.
