Meet the A10 APEX

The Advance Paris A10 APEX is a hybrid integrated amplifier that blends tube preamplification with a high-current Class A/B power stage for a presentation that’s both warm and highly controlled. Rated at up to 130 watts per channel into 8 Ω (and 198 W into 4 Ω), it has the drive for demanding loudspeakers plus the finesse to reveal fine detail in your favorite recordings. A built-in ESS Sabre DAC, MM phono stage, and HDMI eARC make it a flexible hub for vinyl, streaming, and TV audio in a single, handsome chassis.

Highlights & Benefits

  • Tube warmth + solid-state grip — ECC81/12AT7 tubes handle preamp duties while Class A/B output stages keep speakers under tight control.
  • Plenty of real-world power — Up to 130W per channel into 8 Ω and 198W into 4 Ω for confident dynamics with modern speakers.
  • Digital done right — Integrated ESS9018 Sabre DAC handles hi-res input from TV, streamers, and computers.
  • Turntable ready — Built-in MM phono stage with proper RIAA equalization—no extra box required for most vinyl rigs.
  • Home-theater friendlyHDMI eARC, dual sub outputs, and AMP-IN let you integrate serious two-channel power into a cinema system.

Technology & Design

Hybrid architecture — Dual ECC81 / 12AT7 tubes in the preamp add dimensionality and harmonic richness, feeding a high-current Class A/B output stage.

High-Bias mode — Selectable High-Bias operation extends Class A behavior at lower listening levels for even smoother texture and micro-detail.

ESS Sabre DAC — An ESS9018-based converter supports high-resolution digital sources via optical, coaxial, and USB inputs.

HDMI eARC & AMP-IN — One-cable TV connection with CEC volume control, plus AMP-IN to use the A10 APEX as a power amp in a larger system.

Dual subwoofer outputs — Two configurable sub outputs (mono or stereo) allow flexible bass integration in music or theater setups.

FAQ — A10 APEX

What kind of system is the A10 APEX ideal for?

It’s built for serious two-channel music systems that may also handle TV audio. Pair it with quality bookshelf or tower speakers and, if desired, one or two subwoofers for full-range performance.

Do I need a separate DAC or phono preamp?

For most listeners, no. The A10 APEX includes a high-performance ESS DAC and a built-in MM phono stage. You can still add external components later if you’re chasing a specific sound.

Can it be used in a home theater system?

Yes. Use the HDMI eARC input for TV audio and the AMP-IN connection to integrate it with a separate surround processor while still powering your main left/right speakers with the A10 APEX.

Is Bluetooth included?

Bluetooth is available via an optional A-BTC dongle, which adds aptX-capable wireless streaming and even Bluetooth headphone support.
