Yamaha A-S3200 Integrated Amplifier - Black
In the unyielding pursuit of innovation and musicality, Yamaha is proud to present its flagship integrated amplifier—the A-S3200.
The A-S3200, meticulously designed from the ground up, fulfils the artist's ambitions and sets a new standard for high-fidelity audio.
Music spawns from something emotional. An artist desires to convey a distinct, individual narrative. Understanding how music is created, and indeed helping artists to create, embeds in Yamaha’s DNA a fundamental understanding of music, particularly the emotion upon which music creation is inspired. In the development of each of our extensive range of Hi-Fi products, conveying this emotion to the listener is one of the most important considerations.
The A-S3200 employs a large toroidal transformer to achieve pure musicality. With less flux leakage, there is no negative impact on other sensitive audio circuits, while the copper wire is directly drawn from the wound core, minimising energy loss compared to other substitutes and allowing the full emotional energy of the music to be felt by the listener.
High-quality capacitors, recognised for their musical performance and use in high-end home audio products, deliver an authentic sound.
Following an intensive forging process, the PC-Triple C speaker wire has an inherently more linear structure, allowing for smoother signal transmission to more accurately present the original musical recording.
Authentic, pure Hi-Fi is less about listening to brilliant-sounding equipment and more about that equipment disappearing and the artist performing live in the room. The openness of the music and the sensation of being in close proximity to the artist elevate the music and transform listening to music into an active experience instead of a passive one.
Adopting the low-impedance design concept minimises energy loss while maintaining absolute integrity in the audio signal. Preservation of the original audio results in an open, natural soundstage, bringing the listener and the artist together.
Following an intensive forging process, the PC-Triple C speaker wire has an inherently more linear structure, allowing for smoother signal transmission to more accurately present the original musical recording.
Adopting brass screws and gilding oxygen-free copper terminals for the large block capacitors contributes to superior connectivity, superbly delivering the additional headroom available in the four large 22,000 μF capacitors to produce the open soundstage.
The fully balanced circuitry used in the A-S3200 yields several listening benefits. The impressively low signal-to-noise ratio ensures that the gaps in the music—moments of silence where the artist engages the listener—remain truly silent, allowing for anticipation of the next movement. The design also adds to improved channel separation, producing a soundstage that almost makes the entire system disappear, giving the listener the feeling of being in the room with the artist, not the CD or vinyl source.
The music evokes a sense of being present. Not only does the music evoke a sense of presence, but it also evokes a sense of narrative within the music. You can sense the rhythm and groove of the music. You are moving in sync with the music. Only a true representation of the music can deliver this.
An expression of deep, rhythmic, and melodious bass generates feeling from the music, the story of the music. The Mechanical Ground Concept achieves this expressive and rhythmic bass by maximising rigidity and reducing any unwanted vibrations. The large power transformer, block capacitors, and heat sink are directly bolted to the chassis, delivering greater rigidity, while the feet, with bolts directly welded to the main chassis, provide further reinforcement for absolute rigidity. The A-S3200 has an original rigid streamlined construction that further suppresses vibration.
Completing the rigidity of the amplifier are the heavy-duty brass feet used with either spikes or the scratch-resistant base for delicate surfaces, originally engineered exclusively for the flagship M/C-5000.
The phono amp is comprised of an MC head amp and an equaliser amp—each of which is discretely configured, resulting in a rich sound with pronounced musicality when playing vinyl records with both MC and MM phono cartridges.
The luxurious speaker terminals are cut directly from pure brass and achieve a highly secure connection, effortlessly allowing tightening by the human hand.
Use of the elegantly designed switches and knobs on the front panel presents more than just input changes or volume adjustments. They serve as a connection between the owner and the engineer; a beautiful, highly tactile surface reflecting the obsessive care of the engineers is passed directly to the owner.
Visually presenting the dynamics and pulse of the music, the large metres imbue a warm feeling through their softly illuminated LEDs. With the glass window diagonally cut and precision-fit to the back surface of the front panel, therefore presenting no gaps or screws for connection, an exceptionally luxurious look and feel is achieved.
