🎧 ABOUT THIS VIDEO
From the Florida International Audio Expo, we chat with Tyler Nelson of Playback Distribution, the exclusive U.S. importer and distributor for Advanced Paris in the United States. We take a close look at several components from the French hi-fi brand, including the Advanced Paris Classic Series A12 Classic and A10 Classic integrated amplifiers, along with the newer Apex Series A12 Apex, A10 Apex, and A8 Apex models.

Tyler walks through what makes these integrated amplifiers stand out, including hybrid tube preamp stages paired with Class AB solid-state amplification, the signature VU meters, and the upgraded Sabre DAC used in the Apex Series models. We also discuss how features like HDMI ARC, trigger inputs and outputs, and home theater bypass allow these two-channel integrated amplifiers to work seamlessly in modern media rooms where music listening and TV viewing often share the same system.

If you’re curious about integrated amplifiers vs AV receivers, how tube preamps influence sound, or how brands like Advanced Paris combine audiophile design, DAC streaming capability, and versatile connectivity into a single chassis, this interview gives a great overview of what the Classic and Apex Series integrated amplifiers bring to the table.
