Now your computer, smartphone and any other digital or analog source can turn into top class audio systems.
This midi sized integrated amplifier offers impressive powerful sound.
Thanks to its hybrid design it provides richness of sound synonymous with pure valve amplification.
You can connect it directly to your computer through a USB input port and thanks to a built-in high-resolution premium USB-DAC 24bit/192kHz (Cmedia CM6631A+Cirrus Logic CS4344) you are able to change your digital music to a thrilling music experience.
The HTA-700B v.2 is also an ideal companion for mobile devices – stream music from smartphones, tablets or computers compatible with Bluetooth®.
Direct transmission of audio signal from input sources to the "pre-out" output with the variable volume level control allows to connect an external power amplifier, subwoofer and speakers.
Headphone output is a perfect choice for those who prefer discrete listening.
The removable IEC power cable gives you an option to upgrade your system with a premium audiophile power cable in any time.
The amplifier is prepared to use higher quality 12AX7B (or a direct equivalent) vacuum tubes than factory installed (contact us for installation instructions).
What is new in the v.2 version?
Increased power from 33W to 45W per channel at 4 Ohm. Now your music will play louder, more clearly and with higher dynamics!
Redesigned and enlarged power supply to offer better voltage stability and decreased AC ripple current. It reflects in a more natural and fresh sound with deep multidimensional soundstage.
Upgraded, audiophile grade volume potentiometer to provide lower noises and channels crosstalk, and excellent operational feel as well as to limit errors between the two channels.
Extended frequency response up to 28kHz to ensure more linear and lifelike sound and improve sound filed depth.
New, more appealing design.

Hybrid amplifier
What does it mean and why does TAGA Harmony use this approach?
Hybrid means a combination of two different techniques to create an amplifier in one device: the World of tubes and the World of transistors.
TAGA Harmony amplifiers use vacuum tubes in the preamp section and transistors in the power stage. This results in tube, soft and analog-like sound character and at the same time high dynamics and power provided by transistors, which is usually a weak point of pure tube designs.
The sound of TAGA Harmony hybrid amplifiers is not only silky and rich but also powerful and dynamic. In addition, hybrid amplifiers compared to pure tube amps have better abilities to properly drive different kind of speakers.
After being turned on a hybrid amplifier requires to warm up its tubes to reach its full sound capabilities – it usually takes from 5 to 15 minutes depending on model and room temperature.
