AX-505

Delivering all the dynamics of your music, a high performance integrated amplifier with balanced input capability

传递音乐的所有动感 ,具有平衡输入能力的高性能合并式放大器

The AX-505 is a stereo integrated amplifier that delivers 115W + 115W of output power but occupies just an A4-size footprint.

In the power amplifier section we’ve employed a cool-running and energy-efficient option, a TEAC-tuned Ncore module by Hypex from Netherlands. Its clear sound with low distortion and high Signal-to-Noise ratio reproduces Hi-Res audio content with true dynamism and musical verve.
In addition, the AX-505 also provides high quality headphone listening, via an integrated headphone amplifier, one that that supports ‘ground separate’ connection.

Admittedly more ‘eye-candy’ than a functional necessity, a pair of eye-catching level meters on the front panel track musical volume levels as they ebb and flow. The user experience is further enhanced by the presence of a well-damped volume control finished with a machined aluminum knob for precise volume adjustment. A Passive-cooling design, for completely silent operation, allows the listener to focus on their music without the distraction of irritating fan noise

Combine this state-of-the-art stereo integrated amplifier with TEAC's latest standalone DAC unit, the UD-505, or the NT-505 USB DAC/Network Player and you can revel in all the benefits of high-spec, Hi-Res audio, such as DSD512 and PCM 768kHz content.

Ncore power amplifier by Hypex, specially tuned by TEAC

由TEAC公司专门调音的Hypex公司的Ncore功率放大器

The AX-505 is based around a high-performance, energy-efficient Hypex Ncore power amplifier module which delivers 115W+ 115W of output power from a small unit. This isn’t a standard Ncore module… it has been carefully tuned by TEAC to deliver maximum musical expression from the full breadth of musical repertoire.

AX-505基于一个高性能、高效能的Hypex Ncore功率放大器组件，该组件从一个小零件输出115瓦+ 115瓦的输出功率。这不是一个标准的Ncore模块，TEAC对它进行了细致地调整，能从所有的音乐技能中提供最大限度的音乐表现力。

Carefully selected parts, exclusively designed for hi-fi applications

From MUSE op-amps in the analogue section - which fundamentally determines the amplifier’s sound quality - to ladder-resistor type volume controls, our engineers have carefully chosen all key components from ‘made for hi-fi’ ranges, wherever possible.

精心挑选的组件，专为高保真应用设计

从模拟部分的MUSE运算放大器（从根本上决定放大器的音质）到阶梯电阻式音量控制，我们的工程师在各种可能的情况下对“高保真”范围内的所有关键部件都进行了精心选择。

XLR balanced inputs

XLR平衡输入

The AX-505 is equipped with a pair of XLR balanced analogue audio inputs, designed to help minimise external noise picked up as an analogue audio signal travels down the interconnect cable.

AX-505配备了一对XLR平衡模拟音频输入，此设计有助于将模拟音频信号通过互连线材时接收到的外部噪音降至到最低。

CCLC headphone amplifier circuit for maximum linearity

CCLC耳机放大器电路，最大线性度

The AX-505 is also equipped with a 4-pole headphone output jack that supports ‘ground-separate’ connection for excellent channel separation during headphone listening. The CCLC (Coupling Capacitor-less Circuit) headphone amplifier circuit design, meanwhile, eliminates coupling condensers in the circuit’s output stage. This reduces sonic colouration during processing, so delivering a more authentic audio signal to your headphones.

AX-505还配备了一个4极耳机输出插孔，支持“接地分离”连接，以便在耳机收听过程中实现出色的频道分离。CCLC（无电容耦合电路）耳机放大器电路的设计，同时消除了电路输出级的电容耦合。这在处理过程中减少了音波着色，以便给你的耳机提供更真实的音频信号。

A high capacity toroidal-core power transformer

大容量环形磁芯电力变压器

In the power supply section, the AX-505 employs a high capacity toroidal-core power transformer along with Schottky barrier diodes in the rectifying circuit. The advantage of Schottky barrier diodes over conventional types is that they supply cleaner and more stable current, reducing rectifier noise in every part of the amplifier’s circuitry.

在电源部分，AX-505在整流电路中采用了一个大容量环形磁芯电源变压器以及肖特基二极管。
肖特基二极管相对于传统类型的优势在于，它们能提供更清洁、更稳定的电流，以降低放大器电路中每个部分的整流器噪音。

Passive-cooling design for silent operation

It makes no sense for an amplifier to deliver excellent sound to loudspeakers while generating spurious operating noise from a cooling fan. That is why our engineers paid special attention to the AX-505’s circuit and cabinet design, creating a parts layout that would allow for the natural removal of heat, so achieving a compact but powerful amplifier that doesn’t require a cooling fan.

无声运行的被动冷却设计

放大器在冷却风扇工作产生的噪声，不能同时向扬声器发出极好的声音。这就是为什么我们的工程师特别关注AX-505的电路和机柜设计，创造了一个允许自然散热的部件布局，从而实现了一个紧凑但强大的放大器，不需要冷却风扇。

Full-metal body for rigidity, stability and elegance

It’s not just the front panel that’s firmly attached to the robust steel inner chassis . the top and side panels are affixed to it, too. This high standard of construction helps reduce mechanical vibration via heavy parts. A compact design with an A4-sized footprint, the AX-505 fits comfortably into even the smallest of modern spaces.

全金属机身，刚性、稳定性和优雅

不仅仅是前面板牢固地固定在坚固的钢制内底盘上，顶部和侧面板也固定在其上。这种高标准的结构有助于通过重型部件减少机械振动。AX-505外形紧凑，占用空间为A4大小，即使是最小的现代空间也能轻松地容纳。

Plenty of inputs for maximum versatility

大量输入，实现最大的通用性

On the rear panel, connectors are located with a wide pitch between them, in order to allow the use of interconnects with bulky plugs. Three set of RCA analogue inputs offer you the potential of creating a full-scale hi-fi system, even if you start off using the AX-505 as part of a relatively minimalist desktop PC audio set-up.
The AX-505 is also equipped with a set of wide-pitch, diagonally offset (for easy wiring) screw-type speaker terminals, capable of accommodating high quality AWG8 gauge cables and banana plugs.

在背板上，连接器之间的间距很大，以允许使用带有大插头的互连。三组RCA模拟输入为您提供了创建全面高保真系统的潜力，即便您开始使用AX-505作为相对最低限度的台式PC音频设置的一部分。
AX-505还配备了一套宽螺距、对角偏移（便于接线）的螺旋式扬声器终端，能够容纳高质量的AWG8规格线材和香蕉插头。

User-friendly interface for ease of use

In order to provide a more tactile response, the AX-505 employs a volume control with a machined aluminum knob for precise volume control, while a classic toggle is used to switch the amplifier on and off. The remote control, topped with a luxurious aluminum cover, allows you to adjust volume in 0.5dB steps at moderate volumes.

于使用的用户界面

为了提供更具触觉的响应，AX-505采用了一个机械加工而成的铝旋钮音量控制，用于精确的音量控制，而经典的按钮则用于打开和关闭放大器。遥控器顶部配有一个豪华的铝盖，您可以以0.5db的步幅调节音量，音量适中。

Dual level meters that track the pulse of your music

双电平仪表跟踪音乐

A pair of level meters that dance in time as volume levels change help add a visual dimension to your music while enhancing the amplifier’s considerable aesthetic appeal. A 4-step dimmer which can disable the meters or further emphasise movement (by increasing sensitivity by +20dB), can be chosen according to preference.
Even if the level meters are disabled and the backlight is switched off, you can still easily tell if the unit is turned on or off from distance, simply by noting the position of the toggle-type power switch.

一对电平表会随着音量的变化而紧跟着跳动，有助于增加音乐的视觉维度，同时增强扩音器的美学吸引力。可以根据喜好选择4步调光器，它可以禁用仪表或进一步强调移动（通过增加+20db的灵敏度）。
即使水平仪被禁用，背光被关闭，您仍然可以很容易地从远处分辨出设备是打开还是关闭，只需注意拨动式电源开关的位置。
