Features

The Mini-X A-100 is a great sounding, compact, and very flexible, stereo amplifier.  

The A-100 includes features that make it a good choice in a wide variety of situations; from 

driving a small music system in a home or business to providing audio for a second zone in 

a larger home theater installation, or whole house music system.

•  Best-in-class design and sound quality. 

The A-100 shares the same superior design 

and high-quality parts as our bigger amplifiers, so it performs “like the big boys” and 

sounds far better than most amps in its price and power class. 

•  50 watts per-channel @ 8 ohms (80 watts per-channel @ 4 ohms)

 of stable, stellar 

audio quality - sufficient to drive most speakers to satisfying listening levels.

•  Flexible power switching. 

The A-100 can be configured to switch on when a trigger is 

received and when it senses audio signal on its inputs. The A-100’s Trigger Output can 

be used to pass trigger signals to other components.

•  Front panel volume control.  

With its convenient analog front panel volume control, 

the A-100 can be used to adjust fixed-level audio sources.

•  Heavy duty power supply with massive toroidal transformer 

provides plenty of 

continuous power to drive even low efficiency speakers, and enough dynamic power to 

effortlessly reproduce musical peaks without strain or distortion.

•  Compact size

 makes it easy to find a location for the A-100.

•  Buffered loop output. 

The loop output of the A-100 is buffered so that chaining 

additional amplifiers or other devices doesn’t load down the input. The buffered output 

shuts down when the A-100 is powered off, the A-100 is able to control the signal sent to 

other devices chained to it.

•  Full sized five-way binding posts

 make it easy to attach thick wires, lugs, or banana 

plugs.

•  Illuminated Volume knob. 

The A-100’s volume knob is surrounded by an illuminated 

ring, which indicates both Power and Fault status, while the rotational position of the 

knob is highlighted by a pinpoint light on the knob itself.

•  User selectable AC line voltage

; 115 VAC or 230 VAC.
