The A20 is an integrated preamplifier and power amplifier with extraordinary
performance for its price.
High-performance power amplifier
The A20 incorporates a power amplifier providing 70 Watts per channel of
superb quality sound.
Flexible inputs
The A20 preamplifier stage provides four inputs, labelled CD, TUNER, LINE 1,
and LINE 2, to cater for a flexible range of sources.
Fixed and variable outputs
The currently selected source is provided on two pairs of line-level outputs, for
connecting the A20 to other equipment. The TAPE OUT sockets are
independent of the position of the volume control, and allow you to connect
the A20 to a tape recorder. The PRE OUT sockets are controlled by the volume
control, and can be used to connect the A20 to another output stage, or a
digital surround processor such as the Primare P30.
Superb technical design
The A20 incorporates a classic circuit design based on J-FET input devices and
bipolar output devices, typical of far more expensive equipment, giving high
performance and excellent reliability.
Intuitive user interface
In keeping with the philosophy of the Primare range of systems, the A20 can
be controlled through a very simple and intuitive set of front panel controls.
Alternatively all the functions of the A20 can be controlled by the C30 Remote
Control, along with the other Primare components in your system.

Although the A20 is flexible enough to work with virtually any other equipment
you have in your system, it is ideal for use with the other products in the
Primare range, such as the Primare V20 DVD Player, Primare T20 FM Stereo
Tuner, or Primare D20 Integrated CD Player. A particular benefit of using the
A20 with other Primare sources is that you can control your entire system with
a single remote control, to give you a fully integrated system with the simplest
possible user interface.
