Boulder 2060 Stereo Amplifier

What's most important to you?

Dynamics, resolution and lack of grain especially at the treble region. The Boulder 2060 does it all: imaging, resolution, detail, rich musical sound, this is truely one of the best solid state amplifiers ever designed, with all the benefits of solid state and more than its fair share of what valves do best. There is no longer any need to compromise as you can have everything you ever wanted in an amplifier.The 2060 has an uncanny ability to drive any loudspeaker and has virtually unlimited dynamics while accurately rendering subtle detail, thus opening new possibilities for the creation of ultimate music reproduction systems.Innovative automatic load-sensing class A biasing provides ultra-low distortion at all listening levels.The fully balanced input circuit uses a pair of Boulder 993s to provide noise-free input buffering and most of the voltage gain. The output stage uses eighty output transistors and forty-eight power supply filter capacitors per chassis to assure stable, high current output into any load.Heat sinks are machined from solid aluminum, providing both optimum heat dissipation and higher instantaneous peak power without distortion. Superbly built with a reliability that is second to none.I realise that Halcro is the current buzz word in the high end amplifier world, and they are making the best of their advertising dollars, if you do a search of the web you will find many people who have heard both, prefer the Boulder, a typical quote or two from the AudioAsylum:
