ATC - CA2 - Analog Stereo Preamplifier
Given ATC’s history manufacturing active loudspeakers, a partnering preamplifier was a logical step and our first preamp, the SCA2 was released in 1996. The CA2 – a simpler design yet still offering exceptional performance – is derived from the ‘high-end’ SCA2 and maintains its exceptional performance, but with fewer features. It is equally adept at driving active loudspeakers as paired with one of ATCs power amplifiers and a wide range of inputs and outputs ensure outstanding compatibility with a very wide range of partnering equipment.
Today, ATC’s portfolio of high-end audio electronic products continues to expand... from the breathtaking CA2 preamplifier to the exquisite P2 power amplifier. In 2011 the Company launched its first CD player, the CDA2, a design that also incorporated a preamplifier and DAC. In response to changing listening trends, in early 2018 the CDA2 was significantly upgraded and relaunched – the Mk2 model now boasting the latest high performance CD drive technology and USB interface allowing playback of extremely high resolution PCM and DSD audio.
Seen as a further evolution of this highly acclaimed digital source is ATC’s new stand-alone CD player, the CD2, which has been designed in parallel with a matching 100W integrated amplifier, the SIA2-100. Offering a built-in high resolution asynchronous USB interface the amplifier also incorporates a premium AKM stereo 32-bit DAC. These outstanding components offer music lovers an exceptional combination of performance and functionality.
Built to give a lifetime of service and musical enjoyment, all ATC products carry a six year Manufacturer's Warranty.
