The Aavik I-880 is an integrated amplifier that showcases advanced engineering focused on delivering high-quality audio performance. Designed as a powerful Class A amplifier, it maintains a low output impedance which contributes to improved signal fidelity and reduced noise. The amplifier has a maximum output of 200W per channel into 8 ohms, ensuring dynamic power delivery and a high level of musicality. The structure utilizes a solid copper enclosure, which helps in lowering hysteresis, output impedance, and inductance, positively affecting the damping factor and providing cooler operation. The amplifier features multiple gain settings and precise volume control with 1dB steps across a range of 76 dB. Additionally, its active analog crossover technology allows for precise timing in sound signal delivery, critical for both home theater setups and traditional audio applications. The design philosophy integrates artistic aesthetics with functional performance, utilizing materials like titanium and incorporating a large LCD touchscreen for user interaction. The I-880 functions optimally in synergy with Aavik’s advanced Tesla coil technology for noise reduction, ensuring a clear and authentic sound experience. Dimensions and detailed specifications regarding input/output connections, distortion levels, and power consumption contribute to the overall performance of the unit, positioning it at the upper tier of integrated amplifiers.
