Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this TAGA Harmony amplifier.

TAGA Harmony HTA-800 is a 50W / 8ohm high-fidelity but still affordable hybrid 

integrated amplifier utilizing two 6N3 tubes in the preamp section 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, high-power toroidal 200W transformer provides stable, 

constant and immediately-available  energy at any volume level. 

The high-end class, gold-plated speaker terminals offer almost lossless audio signal 

transmission to the speakers.

Analog inputs with high-end solid machined brass RCA sockets can accommodate up 

to 4 stereo devices including a turntable (MM cartridge) 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 built-

in premium high-resolution 24bit / 192kHz DAC will always provide the best sound 

performance. 

For those who prefer discrete listening TAGA Harmony is equipped with a high-fidelity 

headphone preamplifier.

Preamplifier output is dedicated for an optional external power amplifier or powered 

subwoofer and speakers.

The removable IEC power cable gives an option to upgrade your system with a 

premium audiophile power cable in any time.

The HTA-800 combines the analog sound of tubes with the power of transistors to give 

the best sound at the price!
