The Technics SU-V6 is an integrated DC pre-main amplifier that showcases a new Class A amplification system developed by Technics, featuring an original synchronized bias circuit. This method allows for a constant bias current in the output stages, ensuring that transistors are always active, thus eliminating switching distortion. The straight-DC amplification method facilitates faithful signal transmission from DC range, contributing to improved amplitude and phase frequency characteristics. In its design, the amplifier utilizes a dual FET at the first stage of its main amplifier, allowing for low DC drift and noise levels. The unit supports both MM and MC cartridges through its phono equalizer circuit, allowing for excellent sound quality. Additionally, it features independent left and right power supplies to reduce distortion and improve performance. Notable specifications include an effective output of 70W per channel at 8Ω, total harmonic distortion of 0.005%, a power bandwidth extending from 5 Hz to 100 kHz, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 106dB, making it capable of delivering high-fidelity sound. The amplifier is equipped with tone control options, a subsonic filter, and a loudness control feature. The power consumption is rated at 182W, and the device has a weight of 12.3kg with dimensions of 430mm in width, 153mm in height, and 351mm in depth.
