SPA22 AV amplifier | Home Theatre:
Is this the world’s greatest and greenest A/V integrated amplifier? The new SPA22 combines the advanced control flexibility and upgradable topology of the SP32 with five discrete channels of super-efficient UFPD amplification rated at 120W each. Ultra Fast Power Device technology uses a purified Class D/switch-mode design exclusive to Primare and delivers a natural dynamic quality of sound across the entire audible spectrum while saving around 70% of the energy used to power a conventional amp of similar specification.
What’s more, the beauty of SPA22’s new modular design means that new Primare-developed audio/video/control boards can replace the old, so you won’t have to discard the amp simply because it isn’t compatible with new technologies. Primare’s modular design means that our superb analogue stages can be saved for the world as well as your pocket.
The SPA22 currently offers the custom configuration of fifteen audio sources and thirteen video sources as well as providing dedicated 7.1 channel inputs and outputs, three 12V DC triggers and IR and RS232 control. If you decide not to install the HD audio upgrade available now, the three switchable HDMI1.3 inputs on the SPA22 will accept HD video and native multi-channel PCM audio - the highest resolution HD audio format on Blu-ray disc. This means you can enjoy the highest audio resolution straight from the box, amplified to a new dimension by the SPA22’s revolutionary wide bandwidth technology.

Almost everything has been said about the SPA 22 in our time listening in stereo. For power dynamics, analysis and musicality, the transition from two to five channels does not alter its character of super-natural simplicity but it also sounds wild and muscular when the material demands. In addition, and this is important to clarify, the processing of multichannel signals is exceptional thanks to its extraordinary conversion circuits and amplification.

From the first beat and the first film scene, the SPA22 becomes your musical soul and it will enchant you with little goose bumps when the sound is subtle and also when the might of its amplifier delivers a thunderous screen action experience.
