Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this TAGA Harmony amplifier.
TAGA Harmony HTA-1200 is a 80W/8ohm high-fidelity hybrid integrated amplifier
utilizing a 12AX7 tube preamp section with a cathode type amp circuit and a 12AU7
stage serving as a buffer amplifier, and four Toshiba transistors at the output.
This solution ensures a very warm, linear and lifelike sound with high dynamic
presentation at the same time.
High-performance tubes and precise high voltage transistor hybrid power supply
provide voltage stability and very low AC ripple current. It reflects in a more natural and
fresh sound with deep multidimensional soundstage.
High-power toroidal 300W transformer provides constant and immediately-available
energy at any volume level.
High-power transistors utilized in the 0dB current amplification circuit reveal more
content of the music, giving extra pure energy and dynamics to drive even very
demanding and powerful speakers.
The tube circuit cross-connected with audiophile grade MKP capacitors ensures stable
playback improving music tone and sound field depth.
Audiophile grade ALPS volume potentiometer provides minimal noises and channels
crosstalk and has excellent operational feel and limits errors between the two channels.
The high-end class, gold-plated speaker terminals offer almost lossless audio signal
transmission to speakers.
Analog inputs with high-end solid machined brass RCA sockets can accommodate
up to 4 stereo devices including a turntable (both MM and MC cartridges) so you can
enjoy music from your favorite vinyl records.
You can connect a range of digital devices via optical or coaxial inputs and a builtin
premium high-resolution 24bit / 192kHz DAC will always provide the best sound
performance.
For those who prefer discrete listening TAGA Harmony equipped the HTA-1200 with a
high-end headphone preamplifier.
A preamplifier output is dedicated for an optional external power amplifier or powered
subwoofer and speakers.
The removable IEC power cable gives you an option to upgrade your system with a
premium audiophile power cable in any time.
The HTA-1200 is a splendid mixture of analog tube sound, power, precision, purity and
multidimensional soundstage imaging!
