    Tarun, have only heard about Exposure from you and a few others in the hobby. I pressed the trigger on a 2510 based on your reviews. Boy o boy. I have not heard a more sweeter and musical amp in my setup. I drive KLH Model 5's, Denafrips Ares 2 feeding the Amp. I have the Wilsenton R8 as well with tube upgrades. I had the Unison Research Secondo Amp. Out of all these, Exposure 2510 hits a sweet spot in a way that I was simply not expecting. Thank you..thank you..I am so damn pleased.

    Your review was the key element as to buy the 2510 over similar price range competition. The only drawback would be the lack of headphones output. In all other aspects it sounds divine with the focals 906. Very balanced and detailed has plenty of capabilities depending on the source as well. Plannar P3 w/ ortofone bronze give vast musical precision w/ 2510 at this range. An entry-level audiophile amplifier to own for many, many years.

    Taron thanks for going out on a bit of a limb in reviewing a current Exposure amplifier designed by Tony Brady. Exposure amps were designed by John Farlowe whose highly musical circuit designs where one of the best in the industry. Rumors has it that JF worked on the amps for Pink Floyd. My Epos Es 22 loudspeakers are connected to an Exposure 14/9 pre amp and use to be powered by an Exposure Dual IV regulated amp. Last year I decided to purchase Exposure’s 5010 mono blocks to power the Epos Es 22 loudspeakers. The relatively newly designed Exposure 5010 mono block amps would place a smile on John Farlowe. Dynamic, rhythmic drive, taunt palpable bass, palpable midrange. The dynamics of the 5010 amps will at time startle me! Goose- bumps heaven! Thanks for introducing this musical company to those who have not heard of Exposure. Exposure has not missed a beat! Thanks Taron! BTW my current reference system is Epos Es 22 loudspeakers,14/9 Exposure pre amp, Exposure’s current 5010 Mono Amps, two Rel S/5 subwoofers, linn lp-12 turntable, and room corrected with linn akurate DSM player.

    Exposure amps are quite musical rather than clinical especially with Jazz and Classical music.
    I've owned other makes of amplifier over the years but when it comes to exposure they are effortless in there sound delivery especially at low levels.

    I'd like to thank you for the knowledge and experience you provide. I saw this 2510 amp on a used market for about 30% off its listed brand new price and I pulled the trigger right away. It was only six month old. I've never had an Exposure amp before so if it wasn't for this channel, I probably would have missed the deal. Not knowing a good thing when I see it. Anyway omg, everything you said about this amp is true! the background is darker than all amps I've heard before. It sounds great at low volume too! I thought I had to get a much more powerful amp to get my system to sound good at low volume but this amp is actually lower in wattage than my old amp.

Really controls my neat momentum sx3i speakers, deep bass, quick and nice warm vocals. My previous elex r sounded too forward and I could hear a bit of sibliance from the speakers, the 3010S2D sorted it right out. I'm sure the 2510 would have been great also. Anyway really enjoying the channel, looking forward to your future reviews. Best.

    Great review. You've got to love the simplicity of the inner workings of the Exposure, in complete contrast to the Hegel H95 where they are struggling to fit everything in seemingly. Probably not a fair comparison with all the extras that the Hegel has, but for pure sound less is more I reckon. I liken it to the approach and ideology of NVA amps which sound superb too.
    That Ghost Rider track is ace, I see what you mean about soundstage.

I've been running a XXI with a DR4 and the XIII phono pre for more than 15 years now and still love it. Good to hear the new models have stayed to the good sound philosophy of old. Great product line - nothing beats upgrading components I was really attached to and ending up with more of an already great thing.

      I'm listening to one right now (an ELO playlist on Qobuz to be exact 😊), and I can't argue. It sounds glorious to me. Have you had any good synergy with cheaper speakers then the ATC's? I was thinking of trying Dynaudio.
      The ATC's are really up there in price, even used. If you can even find them. Here in the States they're not exactly the most popular brand, unfortunately.
      That's part of why I jumped on this Exposure amp. It was being sold by someone I knew I could trust, and at less then half of retail. I wasn't even amp shopping at the time, but wasn't going to let the opportunity to try out the Exposure brand in such a promising situation just pass by like that. And I'm glad I grabbed it. It actually works good with all the speakers I've tried so far (Triangle Bro3, Denton 80th, Buchardt S300's), but I'm looking at a buying a really nice pair, like maybe Dynaudio Evoke, or Special Forty. And adding a sub.
      Because of my room, and listening situation. I need to go small speakers, and subs really. Which means the ATC would actually be perfect, but the prices are just too much for me. The 19's are 4 grand here in the States! I can get the Dynaudio Special Forties for $2500 if I'm patient. And to me. They seem like a lot more speaker, as they're using parts from Dynaudio's upper lines. That cost a lot more money. In fact one reviewer said he felt they were worth twice as much in his opinion. And he definitely wasn't a biased reviewer. He bought them himself, and is a good guy I feel. Steve Huff is his name I think.

I don't have a dealer near me, and can't afford to buy every speaker in my range, and pay to send them back. There must have been other speakers besides ATC that sounded good to you on this amp. So far every speaker I've tried sounds pretty good actually. But like I said. I'm looking to step up my game.

    Hi Tarun - Thank you for another brilliant review. While I can understand why you felt the need for some disclosure regarding the Exposure brand, I heard nothing in your review that indicated any significant bias in their favor. As always, your presentation rings of honesty. I appreciate the attention to detail. The comments regarding the output devices and the passive preamplification were spot on. I know from having built a DIY Nelson Pass First Watt M2X amplifier (approved by Nelson Pass) how important those output devices can be. Nelson's method for heat dissipation is nearly identical to Exposure's method. As always, your well-sorted and highly polished reviews are welcome in my home. I look forward to the speaker review you mentioned.

    I bought this amplifier based upon a stereophile review years ago which seemed too good to be true at this price point. It really is a very good amp and I ended up selling my Bryston 4B-ST because of it. I'm at a loss as to exactly what individual thing about this amplifier caused me to make that decision. It doesn't have the dynamics, grip and bass of the Bryston at all, but I simply enjoy listening to it more and it is the lowest wattage amp I have had in many decades but it has plenty of power. Really a special little amp that is a bit of a mystery.

As others have expressed, I was hoping you might touch upon how your gear compared/contrast with new integrated, despite recognizing they are surely in separate tiers. Regardless, now that you (seemingly) have access to Exposure products, I hope, and really look forward, to your analysis and thoughts on some of their other offerings (perhaps the ‘recently’ launched 5010 series). Thanks for the care, honesty, objectivity and education you clearly strive for, and achieve, in your reviews... they are always a pleasure to watch and look forward to. Please keep ‘em coming. Cheers!

      Thanks for the kind reply, Tarun.
      I think your thoughts on reviewing the current 3010 separates line-up would be the perfect vehicle to address the passionately debated Farlowe v. Brady eras. I’m sure our small, but very enthusiastic, Exposure community would be delighted and engaged by such a piece, and would be hard pressed to find anyone more qualified than you to deliver it.

    Really excellent review, as always! Your having had direct engineering experience with Exposure...gives a deeper meaning to your reviews on this and any other amp on many levels.
    Such a brilliant yet simple design. When checking these out, Creek integrateds tended to show up having similar design approaches - but more from the modular ad-on standpoint as you mentioned the earlier Exposures offered. I ended up with a used creek Evolution 50a, and what you described of this Exposure kind of describes the Evolution. But I’m sure both companies have since taken some departures since 2012 (age of my Creek...which I love due to its seemingly pure to signal design). Curious of your impressions on the Creek products, so few reviews out there for them!

    I think it's so cool that you have found a pair of speakers that you really enjoy (in your Response one SC) that are from the 90s and you've had for a long time. I also have some speakers that I truly enjoy from the '90s in My Mirage MRM-1. Not my first choice and brands in Mirage but these are a fairly traditional design for Mirage in just being two-way bookies that are 35lbs/16kg each and I'm terrified to let them go in case anything newer doesn't sound as good! I really wish I didn't have this itch to upgrade but, Ive got a good deal on so on some Revel M126be. Which retail for twice as much as the MRM-1 did.

    Hey Tarun, now you're talking! I landed on Musical Fidelity but it could so easily have been Exposure. This is definitely my kind of amp, which I'm sure is no surprise to you!
    I'm somewhat dubious about the choice of speaker connectors, however, aside from that I love the spec. Less is more in my book, so happy to see no DAC or streamer built in. I especially love those Elna Silmic caps, which are in no small part responsible for the excellence in sound quality.
    Great stuff and thanks for the hard work.

    Great review as always! This is my favourite Audio review channel. I like that you offer a comparison with similarly priced alternative. Most reviewers don't provide this context. It would have been interesting if you went into more detail into comparing your old Pre/Power Exposure set with this new product. Perhaps that can be a follow up video :) As with all things on the internet, opinions are extremely divided, some Exposure fans love the older (Farlowe) era, while others prefer the modern iterations. I have always wanted to get Exposure, but need to scroll through all auction/classifieds for used options, as I cannot afford them brand new and they are difficult to find in my country. I am saving up for my dream setup - an Exposure Power Amplifier with a Tube Pre-amplifer

      @kfernandes86 3 года назад

      @@abritishaudiophile7314 Thank you very much for replying. Yes indeed, if you get a chance to review the Pre+Mono combination that would be great, and I suppose it would be a fairer comparison than the 2510. On a separate note - I didn't realise that the preamplifier section on the 2510 was passive. So hypothetically, if your source (DAC etc) has a volume control - could you get one of the Exposure power Amplifiers (2010 power amplifier for example) and get the same result?

    • @abritishaudiophile7314
      @abritishaudiophile7314  3 года назад

      Hi Keith, the short answer is yes. Most modern DACs have a fairly decent digital volume control. You have to exercise a little care with gain and impedance matching. Looking at the specs, the 2010 power amp has 14k input impedance and 24dB gain. It should work with most solid state DACs but I would avoid tube DACs just to be safe 😊👍

    Watching this review at work. Instantly tried that Ghost Rider-song out on Spotify and now cannot wait to get home and try it in my setup. If you remember me, I actually went to my local store and picked up a Hegel H95 for testing, after watching your review, although, I did not settle on buying it. I will explain: Currently I have in my setup a pair of very easy driven Triangle BOREA BR03s and a Marantz PM6006 amplifier. After watching your NAD C338 review, I felt like I had to get a "streamer" of sorts, since Spotify is my go-to music source (kinda stoked about the HIFI announcement!). The Hegel then had the Spotify Connect feature which I really liked a lot. But, audiowise, with my room, my setup, there wasn't THAT much of a difference between the Hegel and the Marantz. I tried several hours of music, different genres and was never as convinced as to buying it directly, which ultimately led to me returning the Hegel and instead I picked up the NA6006 Network streamer from Marantz. This device was, for me (since already owning the PM6006), less than half the price of the Hegel and brought me basically the same fidelity. Thank you Tarun, I find your reviews most comprehensive and enjoyable to watch. Also, I like your keen knowledge in both equipment as well as components within.

    Terrific review as always! I admire the no nonsense/no frills approach and the emphasis on sound this company takes. It's sorta old school and against what other companies are doing trying to appease everyone with what latest and greatest is. Being here in the states were not as familiar with this brand and hope to learn more. Happen to know if they have a good dealer or distribution network (and support) here in the states ? Hopefully you will get the opportunity to try more in their lineup. Been a pleasure watching your channel grow! Thanks for your hard work!

      Thank you Brandon. I am very appreciative of all the support you have and continue to show me. I will ask the manufacturer if they have any distribution in America and post a note to let people know. Thanks again 😊👍👍

    Hi Tarun, hearing you come back to the Exposure 2510 over the years as an important reference, I've begun thinking of purchasing one. I can't quite get my head around how to do it, though, for various reasons. Customs in Thailand can be very high, for example. I may purchase one next year when I hopefully go to Europe for a family member's wedding. What surprised me is that several dealers in the UK offer online or in-store purchasing, but the price to buy (or ship to an address) in the UK is something like 850 GBP, while sending to the US comes to around 615 GBP including shipping! Yet I don't know if there will be big customs duties or hassles on the US side. Exposure dealers in North America seem to be very few and far between, and the price is also on the high side there. Anyway. if I decide to follow through I'll figure out a way. I'm pretty happy with my system, but the idea of an upgrade is sometimes a bit tempting. I actually appreciate that you have a stable set of reference points that you're able to compare new equipment with in your reviews. I find it a good approach that helps define a field of possibilities for those of us looking to put together satisfying systems. Thanks for your efforts!

    Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful reviews. I enjoy when you share what it is you look for and the metrics you use in judging various kinds of audio equipment. I have continued to consider purchasing the Amphion Argon 1 based in large part on your review but also on other reviews and on the very wide sweet spot and ease of positioning that everyone describes. I hope to listen to them myself soon. In your review of that speaker you were very impressed with the overall tonality and synergy when combined with the Hegel H95. I'm curious whether in pairing with the Amphion Argon 1 you would now prefer the Exposure 2510 or the Hegel H95, having heard them both. I don't really need the features of the H95, but if that pairing with the Amphion Argon 1 is really special I would consider it. Thank you again!

      Thank you Theodore. I have listened to both amps with Argon 1 and I felt the synergy was better with the H95 over the 2510. The 2510 is the better amp but requires a speaker with a fuller, more open midrange to show off it’s strengths 😊👍

    Enjoyable, and honest review ! I'm very interested in the amp !! I'm using a hybrid tube amp now , but the low level detail is just not there ! Hard to break away from that tube sound though !! Also I'm using Salk songsuround plus passive monitors which are 84 db sensitive, and are very defined! Hoping they are available in the US !?

      Thank you Steve. One of Exposure’s key design goal was to emulate the midrange clarity and natural presentation associated with the best tube amplifiers. If you can get it in the USA, you should definitely check them out 😊👍

    This price range is for many people the most they would spend on an amplifier. The 2510 is certainly one I will consider. How would it compare with a Rega Elicit R which is similarly priced and seems to sell well.
    I am using a Heed Obelisk Mk2 at present, its the best I have tried in my system so far. I’d say it sounds in the warmer side of neutral which I like and it’s midrange and soundstage are also features I enjoy. But I’d like to try an amplifier that has more power as I have some speakers that are more difficult to drive.

    • @abritishaudiophile7314

      I haven’t done a direct comparison with the Rega Elicit R but it is a good amp 😊

    From a design philosophy this amplifier is right up my street. This could be an amplifier that you buy and cherish for many years as DACs come and go. Or if you upgrade it you will find a happy new owner who will enjoy it just as much. So from where I stand, objectively, the verdict outstanding is well deserved.
    I would have loved to have seen a review on the phono stage as well. Tarun, please buy a Technics SL1500 for your channel and maybe you will be captured by the magic of LP records as well :)
    Oh and now that we are talking about archaic technology, looking on the back as seen on this video, this amplifier has proper record in and tape out connectivity. Pithy though that it does not have a tape / source monitor switch. That would have been the icing on the cake.

      Thank you buddy. Now that I am doing this, the temptation to jump back into vinyl is getting stronger. This is a rather special amplifier and I think for many it could be the end of their journey 😊👍
