I am the second owner of this superb power amp as I've decided to reduce the box count and have gone for a Nuprime integrated amp. Unlike many manufacturers who use Hypex or Ice Power modules, Nuprime make their own Class D units which imho are superior to the others mentioned and I have owned amps based on Hypex and Ice Power. If class D puts you off then you're missing out, this amp is very powerful (2 x 130w into 8 ohms, 2 x 200w into 4 ohms), exceptionally smooth and detailed and can be listened to all day if you're so inclined. It's also compact in size and doesn't get hot!
Can accept balanced or line level input. Condition is excellent, basically unmarked and working as it should.

New price is £1495, mine is £780 including insured postage to UK mainland including all original packaging and accessories. You are more than welcome to collect and have a listen first.

I shall also be listing a Quad Artera Pre which works very well with this amp. If anyone is interested in both we can discuss a discount.

I can vouch for this amp, heard it a little while back at Ian's powering his Jordans - great sounds,

Thanks Malcolm. Why not pair with my Auralic Altair DAC streamer for a very neat all digital system. Good discount available for anyone wanting both.

I'm now committed to reducing my box count so, along with the Quad Artera Pre this is back up for sale. Fabulous power amp with power and delicacy now priced at £650 plus postage.

Niche question. Has anyone used this with quad ESL (63s?) - can they cope with the low impedance bits of frequency?

Hi Wojtek,
There is a review on HiFi Advice which states:


Powered by a large toroidal transformer and with 2 x 130 Watts into 8 Ohms and 2 x 200 Watts into 4 Ohms, the AMG STA will be powerful enough to drive any loudspeaker, including Apogees, Logans, Magnepans and Magicos.

So I dare say it will cope with the Quads. If you bought it and were not satisfied I'd refund you on return of the amp but I'm confident you'd love it :)
