A single chassis. The NOVA A-I190 takes the hybrid philosophy to its ultimate expression: dual toroidal power supplies, 2 x 190W RMS, exceptional soundstage. For those for whom nothing is too much.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith 2 x 190 W into 8 Ω and 2 x 297 W into 4 Ω, the NOVA A-I190 knows no such word as “effort.” The most demanding speakers, largest rooms, most complex passages — everything is handled with the same serene ease.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe ECC81 hybrid tube architecture preserves the organic warmth and harmonic richness that characterize the NOVA range. But here, it's amplified by an absolutely solid electrical foundation: two transformers that share nothing, compromise nothing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdd the balanced XLR output to connect your professional equipment, the MC\/MM phono for your most precious vinyl, and you have an amplifier that is second to none compared to separates costing ten times its price.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour room influences the sound: dimensions, materials, geometry. The NOVA's 4-channel DSP adjusts each speaker—drivers and woofers—according to its position. The result: controlled bass, a stable soundstage, and speakers that take a back seat to the music. Studio precision, accessible from your amplifier. Your music stays the same. Your space, however, reveals it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour audio file has a history: recording, mastering, various formats. NOVA preserves it. Its ESS9017S DAC, in Quad mode, merges 8 channels into 4 analog paths of rare purity—reduced noise, expanded dynamic range, and restored micro-details. It handles all formats (PCM 24\/192, DSD, HDMI eARC) without alteration. Listening: sound as the artist intended. No compromises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTubes persist because their unique warmth and presence still captivate discerning audiophiles. A matter of physics, not nostalgia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ECC81 tube in the NOVA, the first link in the signal chain, shapes the sound. Where a transistor reproduces coldly, the tube adds even harmonics—imperceptible to measurement, but audible. They enrich vocals, strings, and brass. Result: a deep soundstage, spatially separated instruments, and captivating presence. The NOVA doesn't choose between analog and digital. It merges them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModern television broadcasts high-end audio content (Dolby Atmos, high-resolution PCM), but few hi-fi systems take advantage of it. The NOVA's HDMI eARC solves this: a single connection transmits the native signal, intact, processed by the DSP and the ESS9017S DAC. Without compromise. Its strength? Seamless integration: your TV remote controls everything, without any change in habits. Audiophile performance. Intuitive use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInvisible details transform a device into an object of attachment. The ALPS potentiometer on the NOVA, the first point of contact with every listen, offers linear and precise attenuation — without imbalance, without jumps. A technical rigor that inspires confidence. Its touch, soft and controlled, invites precision. A discreet pleasure, but one that leaves a mark once experienced. The NOVA reveals itself the moment your hand touches it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDevices become obsolete as the world evolves: new formats, new habits. The usual response? Replace them. Le NOVA focuses on scalability: two dedicated slots. One for the A-NTC cartridge, which adds streaming when you want it. The other for the A-BTC dongle, for uncompromising bidirectional Bluetooth. Insert one, and your NOVA evolves. More than modularity: sustainability. Your amplifier grows with technology without becoming obsolete. Installed today, the NOVA will remain relevant tomorrow.
