ONIX OA21S Integrated Amplifier Hi-End Amp Like Naim NAIT Very Rare TOP Sound

Description: Used Integrated amplifier ONIX OA21S with an excellent MM phono stage. 220-230 Volts. Includes original mains cable. My specific amplifier belongs to the latest revision - OA21S and was produced in 1995. Including the possibility of adding an external power supply SOAP. Plays all genres. The sound is rich in timbre, with good and correct "analog", while lively, energetic and melodic with excellent spatial construction of the scene and localization of instruments. A true legend of English sound! One of the best British amplifiers of those years. Created by Tony Brady - the founder of ONIX, and from 2000 to this day the chief engineer and developer of Exposure Electronics LTD. With this amplifier I continue the previously started series "Outstanding amplifiers of the GOLDEN ERA of English Hi-Fi" (1980s - 1990s). Each of the amplifiers presented in this series played one or another significant role in the development of the classical school of English sound, an ardent supporter of which I became after many years of experimenting in the world of HI-Fi. With its modest dimensions (the size of a shoe box), the Onix OA21S had good power indicators (50 W at 8 Ohm), coped well with complex loads, had a very dynamic, fast sound, with good resolution, confident and articulated processing of low frequencies, as well as a wonderful and "singing" middle with the correct timbre balance. In addition, there was a good MM phono preamp on board. At one time, the Onix OA21S directly competed with such outstanding amplifiers as Naim NAIT, Inca Tech CLAYMORE, and also outperformed Audiolab 8000A, Mission CYRUS 2, Musical Fidelity A1, ARCAM Delta 90, NVA AP30, MYST TMA3, Harman/Kardon PM655. There is a lot of information and discussions about these amplifiers on the Internet. They are still very popular and rarely appear on the secondary market (despite the fact that their price is constantly rising).
