INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the decco125! The original decco that Peachtree Audio launched
over a decade ago was a ground-breaking product that featured a USB input and built-in
DAC to facilitate audio streaming from a computer. The whole concept of “computer audio”
was cutting-edge at the time and other brands eventually followed Peachtree Audio’s lead
and DACs built into integrated amplifiers became an industry standard over time.
The new decco takes the integrated amplifier concept another step further and addresses
the most critical component in a Hi-Fi system; the speaker. The amplifier inside the decco
is designed to drive virtually any pair of traditional speakers, but when it is paired with
the optional duet speakers, it becomes a 3-way, fully-active, Hi-Fi system that easily
outperforms much larger and more expensive systems.
A portion of the decco rear panel is modular. As shipped from Peachtree, the rear panel
is configured to drive a pair of traditional loudspeakers. When the optional duet speakers
are added, the rear panel is replaced with a new one that configures the decco to drive
the speakers in a fully active configuration including individually amplified drivers, active
crossovers and equalization.
The new decco carries on the Peachtree tradition of form following function. The front
panel is machined out of a single piece of aluminum and designed to emulate an old car
radio with a single row of buttons and a volume knob. Simply select the desired input and
adjust the volume to easily enjoy all of your music! The chassis is wrapped in a beautiful
real-wood cabinet that has been a calling card of Peachtree Audio since the original decco
was launched over a decade ago.
The new decco is designed to handle a wide range of inputs. There is a USB input for a
computer along with an optical input for another digital audio source like a streamer or
a disc player. There are two analog inputs as well. One for a turntable (with a moving
magnet cartridge) and a second for a cassette deck or other “line-level” analog source
device. The decco also includes an optional wireless input to facilitate audio streaming
from the Internet. On the front panel, there is a headphone output capable of driving a
wide range of headphones to enjoy music without disturbing others.
