Emotiva BASX A-700

This product is no longer available for sale!

Overview

The BasX A-700 is a seven-channel power amplifier. Pair the BasX A-700 with a surround sound preamp and it will become the heart of an exceptional home theater system. You can also use it to enhance the amplification section of your integrated audio/video amplifier, or employ the BasX A-700 to power the surround speakers in a luxurious home theater setup. You won’t be disappointed: the sound quality is fantastic.

Why the BASX series is so special

As a leading manufacturer of home audio equipment, Emotiva noticed that many people still don’t own high-quality audio gear. Some of them don’t have the budget to acquire it, while others don’t take the time to try to understand how to use it, and that’s exactly why the brand developed the new Emotiva BasX products. BasX components combine excellent sound quality, a carefully chosen set of truly useful features and great performance, with a simple and elegant design.

All of these criteria together offer a combination you won’t find elsewhere: exceptional sound and an excellent price-performance ratio. All the components in the new BasX line are designed to be within reach of all music lovers. You don’t need to be rich to own them, and you don’t need to be an engineer to know how to use them.

Performance and simplicity

The BasX has all the essential features that make up an excellent audio system. The BasX A-700’s circuitry features a high-quality linear power supply, high-current Class A/B biased amplifier modules, trigger input and output, and standard unbalanced audio inputs. It also includes audiophile-grade, transparent protection against operational faults, which safeguards the A-700 and your other equipment against common failure issues.

The BasX A-700 delivers true audiophile quality, and has all the characteristics to prove it: 110 W RMS per channel at less than 0.1% distortion into 8 Ω with both channels driven, total harmonic distortion plus noise below 0.02%, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 120 dB at full power.

What the press says

The few short weeks spent with the BasX MC-700 and A-700 pair have definitively convinced me of the appeal of Emotiva's new "budget" range. Much more than I would have initially imagined, the two models provide a genuine upgrade for home theater enthusiasts who want to separate preamplification and amplification while keeping their budget under tight control. An excellent value for the money.

Les quelques petites semaines passées en compagnie du couple BasX MC-700 et A-700 m’ont définitivement convaincues de l’attrait de la nouvelle gamme « budget » Emotiva. Bien plus d’ailleurs que je ne l’aurais imaginé au départ, les deux références apportent un véritable gain pour les amateurs de Home-cinéma qui souhaitent séparer préamplification et amplification tout en maîtrisant au maximum son budget. Un excellent rapport qualité/prix.

Steve

A racing beast, what power handling on ALL channels in use. My surrounds and surround backs as well as the center woke up to the point of feeling like I was no longer in the same listening room.

Une bête de course, quelle tenue en puissance de TOUS les canaux en service. Mes surrounds et surrounds back ainsi que la centrale se sont réveillés au point d'avoir l'impression de ne plus être dans la même pièce d' écoute.

Thierry

Excellent small amp at a reasonable price, easy to install, not too heavy, and quiet. The sound quality is quite pleasant - faithful and relatively crisp. I have no regrets about this purchase.

Excellent petit ampli d'un prix raisonnable facile à installer pas trop lourd et silencieux. Le rendu sonore est tout à fait agréable fidèle et relativement piqué. Je ne regrette pas cet achat.
