Giy Juv, thatks for posting this, there's not much review on this product. Have been procrastinating from buying it for 6 months. Of course the aesthetics is great (needle), but how is the performance? Openness, Soundstage, Clarity, Treble, Bass, Mid Range? Could you please share?
hello, this product is of an excellent quality, at the same cost you can not find anything better, neither at par ...... combined with its preamplifier is very complete and is equipped with a high quality DAC .. .. I am very satisfied and I believe that at the moment in its price category there is nothing comparable.
thank you. how would you describe it's upper treble, mid range, vocals, mid bass, low bass? What about is soundstage and imaging? thank you so much for your time.
hello, what it is your opinion between an amplifier without pré amplifier and on other side an amp as pre amp with this amplifier... i have an yamaha rx a 850 and i bought some Klipsch rf7 mk1... Do you think i will improve my hifi system if i buy an xa160 ? BR Raphaël
hello, certainly with a final of this caliber ... it's a power amp with a high current distribution, I use it with the klipsch rf7 mk2 .... the result is exceptional, it has a power supply with a maximum output of 700w with a weight of 20kg .... before I had a configuration with integrated DENON, there is so much difference .... hello
@@giujuv9095 Hello thankyou for your answer... so you confirm than a power amplifier Will improve my setup. I never listened something with this configuration... have you some recommandations to improve my system. Kind regards Raphaël
@@barbouze6177 hello, to improve a configuration in my opinion you have to start from a good cable, both signal and power ... to have a hi-fi system of a higher standard, you must have separate sections, and not an integrated, at least that is not a high quality product like a Mcintosh ... so a good pre, a good ending and a good cable, coupled to a CD source of good mechanics, like MARANTZ, then for the speakers is a very subjective choice and respects a lot the kind of music you listen to ... I am a lover of KLIPSCH for its high efficiency and their adaptability to all kinds of music .... hello
@@giujuv9095 hello vinc. Ok. I think to buy an advance xa160 as power amplifier and after improve my preamp by having a better Yamaha avantage 2000 series or higher: 3000 series with they have some good dac and dsp... What do you think ? BR Raphaël

La Pich Why not take Advance Paris XP-500 preamp .. it will be a perfect match
advance-acoustic.com/en/hifi-elements/147-xp-500
On some X-A160 the Logo is Advance Acoustic and on some newer Amps is Advance Paris.
Why?
Optixx
Now their high -end range is called Advance Paris. So this amplifier is now Advance Paris
